MIL-STD-1911A
4.2.3 Electrical firing energy dissipation. For electrically initiated explosive trains, the design shall include a provision to dissipate the firing energy whenever an armed HEO is returned to the non-armed condition. The dissipation means shall be designed to prevent common-mode failures.
4.3 Documentation. An evaluation program plan shall be prepared to form the basis for a
safety assessment. The program plan and results of the assessment shall be documented in both
detail and summary form.
4.4 Electrical/electromagnetic environments. The HEO shall be designed such that, in its normal life cycle configurations, it shall not unintentionally arm, nor shall any explosive component unintentionally function, during or after exposure to: electromagnetic radiation (EMR), electrostatic discharge (ESD), electromagnetic pulse (EMP), electromagnetic interference (EMI), lightning effects (LE) or power supply transients (PST). The HEO shall be tested or evaluated for the following as applicable:
a. EMR - per MIL-STD-1512 and MIL-STD-464 b. ESD - per MIL-STD-331
c. EMP - per MIL-STD-2169
d. EMI - per MIL-STD-461 and MIL-STD-462 e. LE - per MIL-STD-464
f. PST - by appropriate test and analysis
4.5 Munition assessment. The HEO shall be designed to minimize the violence of a reaction and subsequent collateral damage when it is subjected to credible environments, such as temperature extremes, shock and vibration, or fragment or bullet impact.
4.6 Sterilization. If the HEO cannot be restored to its predeployed configuration, its design shall provide a sterilization capability. Self-destruction is an acceptable alternative to sterilization when the HEO has been properly armed.
4.7 Explosive ordnance disposal (EOD). Features shall be incorporated that facilitate HEOs being rendered safe by EOD tools, equipment and procedures, even if sterilization or self- destruction features are incorporated.
4.7.1 EOD review. All new or altered designs, or new applications of existing designs, shall be presented to the appropriate service's EOD research, development, test and evaluation
(RDT&E) authority for technical advice and assistance in determining viable design approaches
or trade-offs for EOD. (see 6.6)
