MSFC-RQMT-2918E, MSFC TECHNICAL STANDARD: REQUIREMENTS FOR ELECTROSTATIC DISCHARGE CONTROL (17-DEC-2015)
MSFC-RQMT-2918E, MSFC TECHNICAL STANDARD: REQUIREMENTS FOR
ELECTROSTATIC DISCHARGE
CONTROL (17-DEC-2015)., This document provides a consistent application of requirements for an electrostatic discharge (ESD) control program for electrical or electronic assemblies, equipment, and their constituent parts susceptible to damage from ESD. This document provides requirements for prevention of electrostatic discharge (ESD) events and
for protection of hardware from ESD. The document is applicable to MSFC in-house activities
for flight and flight-associated hardware, mission essential or critical ground support equipment
and elements thereof, or as specified per program or project requirements for in-house activities.
This document has been developed to comply with the requirements of ANSI/ESD S20.20 as
specified per NASA Policy Directive (NPD) 8730.5, NASA Quality Assurance Program Policy.
The NASA-HBDK-8739.21 was also used to provide standardized guidance based on Agency level
best practices
