Abstract:
A major problem faced by the military services is effective maintenance of complex electronic equipments despite shortages of highly skilled maintenance technicians. This guide is intended to help alleviate this problem by recommending design practices which will maximize the ease with which electronic equipments can be maintained. Factors to be considered in planning for maintainability are briefly reviewed. A schedule of steps to be taken in designing a maintainable system is presented. Specific characteristics are recommended for equipment and maintenance procedures.
