NASA-STD-4003A Electrical Bonding for NASA Launch Vehicles Spacecraft, Payloads, and Flight Equipment

National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA). This Technical Standard approved by NASA 02.05, 2013. Superseding NASA-STD-4003. 35 p. The purpose of this Standard is to define the basic electrical bonding requirements for NASA launch vehicles, spacecraft, payloads, and equipment. Its intent is to provide fundamental aerospace electrical bonding requirements, as well as to classify electrical bonds according to their purpose. This Standard also states the requirements for the various classes. The rationale for specific requirements is stated where possible. Additional data is provided to support tailoring for new applications, if necessary.
