Fastening, clamping, supporting, and locking devices shall be correctly installed without damage. There shall be no detrimental foreign matter internally or externally.
3.1.9 Interchangeability. ARTS assemblies and subassemblies shall be designed for interchangeability between the same ATE configurations. Consideration shall be given to interchangeability of components, assemblies and subassemblies to minimize sparing, simplify design, and reduce overall costs. Standard parts and assemblies shall be used when available, practical and cost-effective.
3.1.10 Safety. The ARTS shall be designed to eliminate or control safety hazards using MIL-STD-882, MIL-STD-1472 para. 5 through 5.13 and MIL-PRF-28800 para. 3.2 as a guide. This shall include, but not be limited to the following safety considerations:
