Standard Details

1 PREFACE

1.1 Scope

This document has been written to assist the designers, manufacturers and end users of electronic enclosures of electrical and electronic equipment to understand the best practices to meet requirements, ensuring the reliability and function of the end item assembly for its intended design life.

An electronic enclosure, for the purpose of this document, is defined as a chassis, box, top level assembly, high level assembly (HLA), functional unit, drawer, cabinet, or other designation forming a top level system assembly. An enclosure typically consists of a combination of printed board assemblies (PBAs), cable and wire harness assemblies and other electronics and/or mechanical components, and is typically tested as a functional unit. The enclosure includes the necessary mechanical and structural elements to protect and integrate the assembly into a finished system. Enclosures are often modular components or sub-systems of larger systems, designed for replacement in the end-use environment.
