R7700,00 excl.VAT

The IPC/WHMA-A-620, Theoretical Training in the Requirements and Acceptance for Cable and Wire Harness Assemblies, is the first industry consensus standard for cable and wire harness fabrication and installation and it is a joint project of IPC (Institute of Printed Circuits) and WHMA (Wire Harness Manufacturers Association).

This standard describes test and acceptability criteria for producing crimped, mechanically secured, or soldered interconnections and the associated lacing/restraining criteria associated with cable and harness assemblies. An industry developed and approved program that includes training, certification and instructional materials based on the IPC-A-620 is available to your company. Three classes of products are defined and include criteria for Target, Acceptable, Process Indicator and Defect conditions, to support the collection of visual quality acceptability for all three classes.
