Scope
This SAE Aerospace Information Report (AIR) is limited to the requirements of AS50881 and examines these requirements, providing rationale behind them. AS50881 is only applicable to the aircraft electrical wiring and interconnect system (EWIS). Pods and other devices that can be attached to an aircraft are considered as part of the aircraft equipment design. Its scope does not include wiring inside of airborne electronic equipment, but does apply to wiring externally attached to such equipment. The AS50881 scope does not include attached devices but does include the interface between the pod/equipment and aircraft wiring. 3.3.5 addresses components such as antennas and other similar equipment that were once supplied as Government Furnished Aeronautical/Aerospace Equipment (GFAE).
Rationale
AS50881 covers all aspects in electrical wire interconnect systems (EWIS) from the selection through installation of wiring and wiring devices and optical cabling and termination devices used in aerospace vehicles. Aerospace vehicles include manned and unmanned airplanes, helicopters, lighter-than-air vehicles, missiles, and external pods. This SAE Aerospace Information Report (AIR) provides users with the background and rationale for the design-related requirements that are specified in AS50881 through revision G.

Issuing Committee
AE-8A Elec Wiring and Fiber Optic Interconnect Sys Install
SAE Committee AE-8A, Electrical Wiring and Fiber Optic Interconnect Systems Installation, is associated with those activities directed by the Aerospace Electronics and Electrical Systems Division of SAE and SAE Committee AE-8, Aerospace Electrical/Electronic Distribution Systems which relate to installation and maintenance of electrical wire systems and associated hardware standards and specifications.

* Redlines comparisons are available for those standards
listed in the Revision History that contain a radio button. A
redline comparison of the current version against a revision is
accomplished by selecting the radio button next to the standard and
then selecting 'compare'. At this time, Redline versions only exist
for some AMS standards. SAE will continue to add redline versioning
with ongoing updates to SAE MOBILUS.
