This specification covers the requirements for
electronic control cables used in aircraft and missile applications. |
| These cables maybe constructed from a
variety of insulating materials, having different characteristics. Alcatel
manufactures most |
| of the combinations available in this
specification. The cables can be obtained in configurations up to 15
conductors with just a |
| sheild, or just a jacket, or both single
and double shields and jacket. Conductor colors are specified and the cable
must be indentified |
| by methods described in the body of
MIL-DTL-27500. |
|
|
|
|
|
| Cable Designation |
|
|
|
|
|
|
| Cable will be Identified by a combination
of digits and letter (not to exceed 16), in accordance with the following: |
