Journal Title: Endüstri Mühendisliği - Year 2019, Vol 60, Issue 694

Abstract

The aging of electrical wiring interconnection systems (EWIS), a maintenance-focused assessment was conducted to determine the level of deterioration of the wire bundles/harness. In a typical aircraft, hundreds of thousands of cables are used to fulfill many functions. Failures that may occur in the cable system can lead to high cost maintenance and dangerous circumstances. Thus, Cable thus inspections thus have a significant place in aircraft maintenance. Factors, such as vibration, moisture, metal chips, indirect damage, contamination and excessive temperature, occurring in the cable system are the main causes of the degradation. In this study, the deteriorations of the cable system and the cable bundles were determined and in the scope of the MIL-HDBK-525 on the cable system, the risks of the analysis obtained in associated with general visual inspection (GVI), detailed inspection (DET) and zonal inspection (ZI) which covers a combination of GVI and DET were evaluated.
