  1. Conditions to qualify EN3375-011 cables under technical specification EN3375-001 (initial qualification):
    • Several test as per EN3475-XXX were not performed due to other similar tests. ASD-CERT quality manual version 10 has a special paragraph for analogies. “Qualification shall be performed to verify compliance with the technical Specification. Qualification by analogy shall be made by the manufacturer with calculation, analyses, and existing test results. The manufacturer shall bring all justifications in the case of a qualification by analogy.” Please provide ASD-CERT with evidence that the tests which have not been performed should have brought successful results or provide ASD-CERT with the results of such similar tests.
    • Also on ASD-CERT Quality Manual it is stated on page 35 that “Tests referenced for analogy must have been performed less than one year ago”, please provide ASD-CERT with evidence that all non-performed tests are less than a year ago at the time the audit was made by the auditor MBR.
    • EN3475-302 – voltage proof test – in the QTR. It gives only the required voltage but not the test results like the actual voltage applied for the test, it only states “pass”. Please provide ASD-CERT with such test results and a statement “no perforation of the insulation was seen”.
    • No marking evidence as per EN3838 like a photo was shown in the audit report ACP-005 form2 or QTR. Please provide ASD-CERT with such an evidence for the marking on the cable. Also a photo of the marking after the test of resistance to fluids EN3475-411 should be provided to ASD-CERT to make sure it can still be read.
    • EN9100 certificates have expired end of September 2018. Please provide ASD-CERT with evidence that they have been renewed.

    KL24 has been produced since 2012 and delivered every day on an annual quantity of 600 km.
    Initial Qualification and approval have been done by Airbus since 2012. You will find all qualification Test reports attached to this emails.
    Today and due to this anteriority, the Qualification 632 process is more to be considered as a formal process confirming that the design, materials and the process have been robust for years.
    The strict applicability of ASD quality manual appears as not reliant is this case : design and process have been stabilized for years and the representability of tests is valid much more than one year.

    Update can be done to the test reports as these values are available from the manufacturer but this will imply to re-issue and stamp all QTR.
    However, I confirm that the test has been done in conformity to relevant test method and pass required level of expected performances meaning that the result has meet the minimum requirement value.

    No picture has been record as the main requirement is to perform a contrast measurement (it is room for update to Test method). The condition is the following If the mimimum contrast value is conform this confirm and comply that marking is visible

    • EN9100 certificates have expired end of September 2018. Please provide ASD-CERT with evidence that they have been renewed.

    EN9100 renewal and ISO9001 certificate are attached to this message.
