BS EN 3475-702 specifies a method of assessing the pushback capability of the braid screen of a finished cable. BS EN 3475-702 shall be used together with EN 3475-100. BS EN 3475-702 has been prepared by the European Association of Aerospace Manufacturers (AECMA).
BS EN 3475-702 on test methods for pushback capability of the braid screen is useful for:
Aircraft electrical cables sustain intense vibration during take-off, flight, and landing, while also being subject to harsh environmental conditions. Cable faults cost money and create disruption, so there is an enormous demand for cable test techniques to ensure cables and joints are in good condition.
BS EN 3475-702 provides best practice guidelines on the test methods of assessing the pushback capability of the braid screen of a finished cable in aircraft systems.
By adopting BS EN 3475-702, manufacturers can understand the method to push back the brain screen.
