DESCRIPTION:In avionics\, widely used standards for power quality include M
 IL-STD-704 and RTCA DO-160. While both these standards are extremely detai
 led\, in the area of three-phase power failure\, there are enhancements th
 at should be considered to capture the full set of failure conditions that
  can occur in the field or during production tests.\n\nFor example\, in MI
 L-STD-704\, it is not clear how a phase loss is defined. Although the acco
 mpanying handbook (MIL-HDBK-704) does clarify the fault definition (as a z
 ero-volt potential) it is also likely that the fault can be caused by an o
 pen-circuit condition\, which is not covered. Also not covered is the appl
 ication of power to the Unit Under Test (UUT) with a pre-existing fault co
 ndition. DO-160 has a similar issue with the phase fault definition\, but 
 it does cover some cases where the UUT is energized with a pre-existing fa
 ult. Neither specification covers the loss of the neutral connection for w
 ye loads.\n\nSuggested updates to both standards are discussed\, along wit
 h examples describing scenarios where a UUT may pass the DO-160 and/or MIL
 -STD-704 phase loss methods but fail under conditions likely to occur in t
 he field or during production test. Design mitigation techniques to preven
 t damage are also covered.\n\nSpeaker(s): James Colotti\, \n\nFarmingdale\
