There shall be no evidence of breakdown when the searchlight is subjected to the dielectric test specified in 4.6.6. 3.5.8 Safety. Particular care shall be taken in the design and construction of the searchlight to insure safety

34、 of the operating personnel from the dangers of electric shock and of contact with high temperatures. Effective electric grounding of the assembly shall be maintained as all times to prevent electric shock to personnel in contact with any parts of the unit.Provided by IHSNot for ResaleNo reproductio

35、n or networking permitted without license from IHS-,-,-MIL-DTL-16938D 6 3.5.8.1 Electric shock.
