Safety wires are responsible for maintaining the position of a cable/ wire harness on an aircraft and must be able to endure forces due to turbulence or repeated maintenance. This test evaluates the ability of a connector to withstand pulling forces from a safety wire at the location of the safety wire hole.
A standard safety wire is fed through the safety wire hole on the sample connector and appropriately secured. A force of 15 pounds is applied once in a direction away from and perpendicular to the connector axis and once in a direction away from and parallel to the connector axis.
