35、e, by the relevant product specification. The equipment undergoing reliability testing is normally subjected to repeated test cycles. The number of cycles will depend on the accumulated relevant test time, as required by the selected compliance test plan of IEC605-7, or as suitable for determination
36、 testing according to IEC605-4. The step-by-step procedure described here is intended for any specific equipment to be tested, when it is considered necessary to simulate closely the real conditions of use of the equipment. It applies fully to laboratory testing, but may be applied to field testing,
37、 in so far as conditions can be controlled, with respect to operating conditions only (including load, supply, etc.). 1 Scope This part of IEC605 provides a general procedure for design of test cycles, where no applicable preferred test cycles can be found in IEC605-3. It applies to the design of op
38、erating and environmental test cycles referred to in 8.1 and 8.2 of IEC605-1. The resulting test cycle should be included in the detailed reliability test specification. Tests which include cycles designed according to this standard are not intended to replace ordinary tests such as qualification te
39、sts, functional performance tests and environmental tests. Pre-exposure tests may in some cases be necessary before commencing the test cycles designed by the methods of this standard. The basis of the decision as to whether to include pre-exposure tests is outside the scope of this standard. 2 Norm

It is thus necessary that the test conditions are properly correlated to those to which the equipment is subjected in real use. These conditions may, however, be very complex and not
