2.1.6.2 Maintainability
Components shall be designed to be maintained using commercially available
tools and equipment. Components shall be arranged and assembled so they
are accessible to maintenance personnel. There shall be no degradation in
tamper protection, structural integrity, EMI/RFI attenuation, or line
supervision after maintenance when it is performed in accordance with
manufacturer's instructions.
2.1.6.3 Interchangeability
The system shall be constructed with off-the-shelf components which are
physically, electrically and functionally interchangeable with equivalent
components as complete items. Replacement of equivalent components shall
not require modification of either the new component or of other components
with which the replacement items are used. Custom designed or
one-of-a-kind items shall not be used without explicit approval from the
Contracting Officer. Interchangeable components or modules shall not
require trial and error matching in order to meet integrated system
requirements, system accuracy, or restore complete system functionality.
2.1.6.4 Product Safety
System components shall conform to applicable rules and requirements of
NFPA 70
. System components shall be equipped with instruction plates
including warnings and cautions describing physical safety and any special
or important procedures to be followed in operating and servicing system
equipment.
2.1.7 Controls and Designations
Controls and designations shall be as specified in
NEMA ICS 1
, Special Test
Equipment. Provide all special test equipment, special hardware, software,
tools, and programming or initialization equipment needed to start or

is defined as any test equipment not normally used in an electronics
maintenance facility.
2.1.8 System Integration
The ACPCS shall be supplied as an integrated system, and shall include all
sub systems specified hereafter. Hardware and software integration shall
be required for the ACPCS to function as one integrated system. The
Contractor is responsible for all integration and appetencies required for
the system to behave as one system. Supply of separate sub systems without
integration is not acceptable. The extent and nature of integration shall
be extensively documented and demonstrated in the Group 1 Technical Data
Package.
2.1.9 Environmental Conditions
2.1.9.1 Interior Conditions
Equipment installed in environmentally protected interior areas shall meet
performance requirements specified for the following ambient conditions:
a. Temperature:
0 to 50 degrees C
32 to 120 degrees F
. Components
installed in unheated security protected areas shall meet performance
