Scope
This specification covers all aspects in Electrical Wiring Interconnection 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.
Rationale
This document was revised to incorporate comments (editorial and technical) received and coordinated by the SAE AE-8A System Installation Committee since 2015. Specification reference data was also updated.

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.
Reference
* 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.
