Non-operational base failure rates (
λb) and operational base failure rates (
λB) for four types of connectors are listed in
Table A-1. This table also lists the operational environmental factors (
KE) appropriate to the various ground (G1 and G2), ship (S1 and S2) and air (A1 and A2) environments.
Active Pin Factors (
Kp) and Cycling Failure Rates (
λcyc) are listed in
Table A-37 and
Table A-36 respectively. Note that when the number of cycling operations is less than 10 per 1000 operating hours, the cycling rate is negligible and taken as zero.
