2、 pressures typically mandate performing the minimum set of tests possible. The paper/documentation process associated with troubleshooting problems and/or performing detailed investigations of unexpected test results can significantly add to the time required to perform detailed tests on flight hard
3、ware/elements.In this particular event, a minimum amount of pre-planning (i.e. insufficiently defined test requirements) resulted in power quality test implementation at KSC on the ISS Flight Node 1 that required replanning/rescoping the tests “on the fly“ at KSC. Compounding the event was unexpecte
4、d test results from the Russian to American Converter Unit (RACU) that forced the onsite test team along with support personnel from Boeing Canoga Park to perform detailed troubleshooting which further delayed the formal testing progress. Due to the unplanned, excessive time spent on Node 1 Power Qu
5、ality Testing, valuable schedule reserves for the Flight Node 1 were lost. In addition, the NASA if data can be obtained from a load or an individual rack, dont perform the testing on an entire flight element. This accomplishes two things: the performance of the component is established, which in tu
