TESTS, INSPECTIONS, AND VERIFICATIONS
**************************************************************************
NOTE: Contract schedules should allow sufficient
time for an orderly and timely sequence of data
submission, manufacturing of equipment and
materials, and delivery in accordance with the
specifications. However, there may be occasions
when wire and cable must be obtained in such a short
time that compliance with the requirements of this
paragraph and subparagraphs CABLE DATA and
INSPECTIONS AND TESTS, is not practical. In those
cases, wire and cable from suppliers' stock may be
considered for approval, provided a manufacturer's
certificate is submitted, which establishes to the
satisfaction of the Contracting Officer that the
proposed wire and cable, identified by lot number
and reel or coil number, meet the applicable
standards and s When the wire and cable must meet
IEEE Std 383, the reports required in this paragraph
and subparagraph FLAME TESTS, should always be
submitted. Such deviations should be limited to
those cases in which a contract change or incorrect
estimate requires the procurement of cable which, if
done following the specified approval procedure,
would result in unacceptable contract completion
dates.
**************************************************************************
1.5.1
Cable Data
Manufacture of the wire and cable shall not be started until all materials
to be used in the fabrication of the finished wire or cable have been
approved by the Contracting Officer. Cable data shall be submitted for
approval including dimensioned sketches showing cable construction, and
sufficient additional data to show that these specifications will be
satisfied.
1.5.2
Inspection and Tests
Inspection and tests of wire and cable furnished under these specifications
shall be made by and at the plant of the manufacturer, and shall be
witnessed by the Contracting Officer or his authorized representative,
