Scope
This SAE Aerospace Information Report (AIR) is limited to the subject of compatibility of wiring as part of aircraft Electrical Wiring and Interconnect Systems (EWIS) installed in and around aircraft fuel tanks.
Rationale
This Aerospace Information Report (AIR) provides users with background information in regard to installation of EWIS (Electrical Wiring and Interconnect Systems) in and around aerospace vehicle fuel tanks. This AIR also provides information in regard to fuel compatibility testing conducted by branches of the U.S. Department of Defense (DoD). The cited references, standards and specifications are from the published version at the time when this report was written. As those documents evolve and are updated, the reader is encouraged to refer to the newest published version for the most current guidance.

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.
