Parts Populations
List each part of the item being evaluated on a separate line of the worksheet, grouping them according to their functions. Note that all parts should be listed, except for small general service items (such as nuts, bolts, screws, washers, etc.). Joints and connections (including those behind connectors) should be listed as totals for a particular type, e.g., hand-soldered, crimped, etc..
Failure rate data may not be available for all parts listed on the worksheets but, by listing every part, the extent of such deficiencies can be assessed, if required.
