MIL-DTL-29606A
4.6.2 Sampling for performance inspection. From each lot, sample units shall be selected
at random in accordance with ASQ Z1.4. The inspection level shall be S-2 unless otherwise
specified in the ordering data (see 6.2h).
4.6.3 Inspection of packaging. The sampling and inspection of the preservation, packaging,
and container marking shall be in accordance with the requirements of MIL-C-3993.
4.7 Test methods.
4.7.1 Visual examination. The conductor shall be visually inspected to determine
conformance to the conductor strand materials requirements and any other requirements herein
not covered by specified test methods.
4.7.2 Diameter. The diameter shall be measured at three locations along the length of each
sample. Each measurement shall be the average of two readings taken 90 degrees apart on the
conductor. Micrometers, calipers, or optical measurement devices capable of reading to the
nearest 0.0001 inch for sizes 12 and smaller or to the nearest 0.001 inch for sizes 10 and larger
shall be used.
4.7.3 Solderability. Samples shall be tested per MIL-STD-202, Method 208 except as
noted below, according to the plating/coating material and base material, as applicable.
4.7.3.1 Silver coated conductor. Exceptions to MIL-STD-202, Method 208:
a. Wrapping wire is not necessary.
b. For first article tests, the test shall require steam aging as specified in MIL-STD-202,
Method 208. For conformance testing, no steam aging is required.
4.7.3.2 Tin coated conductor. Exceptions to MIL-STD-202, Method 208:
a. Wrapping wire is not necessary.
b. Steam aging shall not be required.
4.7.3.3 Nickel coated conductor. No solderability testing is required for nickel coated
conductors.
4.7.3.4 Aluminum conductor. No solderability testing is required for aluminum conductors.
4.7.3.5 Thermocouple extension conductor. No solderability testing is required for
thermocouple conductors.
