MIL-DTL-917F(SH)
4.6.4 Partial discharge test. Partial discharge testing is dependent on the system chosen for use and the system
being tested. Partial discharge test techniques shall be in accordance with IEEE C37.301 as applicable.
5. PACKAGING
5.1 Packaging. For acquisition purposes, the packaging requirements shall be as specified in the contract or
order (see 6.2). When packaging of materiel is to be performed by DoD or in-house contractor personnel, these
personnel need to contact the responsible packaging activity to ascertain packaging requirements. Packaging
requirements are maintained by the Inventory Control Point's packaging activities within the Military Service or
Defense Agency, or within the military service's system commands. Packaging data retrieval is available from the
managing Military Department's or Defense Agency's automated packaging files, CD-ROM products, or by
contacting the responsible packaging activity.
6. NOTES
(This section contains information of a general or explanatory nature that may be helpful, but is not mandatory.)
6.1 Intended use. It is intended that this specification be invoked in its entirety in individual equipment
specifications for electric power equipment and electrical control equipment. This specification covers the basic
requirements applicable to equipment intended for naval shipboard use. Specifications for equipments of this type
that have need for more restrictive requirements may supplement the individual requirements contained herein, as
necessary, to meet that need. In exceptional cases where only portions of this specification are applicable because
of peculiar circumstances, the portion should be invoked by reference to this specification by basic specification
number and the requirements, by title or descriptive statement or area of coverage, which apply.
6.2 Acquisition requirements. Acquisition documents should specify the following:
a.
Title, number, and date of this specification.
b.
Whether equipment is for surface ship or submarine application (see 1.1).
c.
Acquisition requirements for the equipment (see 3.1).
d.
Reliability and maintainability requirements:
(1) Reliability quantitative requirements (see 3.2).
(3) Maintenance concept (see 3.2.5).
(4) Definition of failure (see 4.4.1e).
(5) Reliability testing requirements (see 4.4.4.1).
(6) Reliability test accept-reject criteria (see 4.4.4.1).
(7) Reliability test conditions (see 4.4.4.1).
(8) Maintainability quantitative requirements (see 4.4.4.2).
(9) Maintainability demonstration requirements (see 4.4.4.2).
e.
Equipment installation requirements (see 3.2.3).
f.
Special performance, if required, in the event of an electrical part failure (see 3.2.6).
g. Input power variations for AC equipment (Type I power of MIL-STD-1399-300 applies unless otherwise
specified) (see 3.2.9.1).
h. Input power variations for DC equipment on submarines (MIL-STD-1399-390 applies unless otherwise
specified) (see 3.2.9.2).
i.
Surge voltage suppression, if other than as specified (see 3.2.11).
j.
Inclined operation, if other than as specified (see 3.2.12).
k.
