Overview

EN 3841-201:2004 - "Aerospace series - Circuit breakers - Test methods - Part 201: Visual inspection" is a CEN-approved European standard that specifies a simple, repeatable method for visual inspection of aerospace circuit breakers. Intended to be used together with EN 3841-100 (General), this document defines the scope and basic requirements for non-magnified visual checks carried out during production, testing and after environmental exposure.

Key topics and requirements

  • Inspection method
    • Visual inspection shall be performed without magnification.
  • Areas to inspect
    • General appearance: surface finish, colour and overall assembly quality.
    • Markings and inscriptions: conformity, legibility and quality of labels, part numbers and safety markings.
    • Calibration seal: presence and undamaged condition of calibration or tamper-evident seals.
    • Post-climatic inspection: after climatic or environmental tests, inspect for corrosion or poor legibility of markings.
  • Reference
    • Must be applied in conjunction with EN 3841-100, which provides general test-method requirements for the EN 3841 series.

Practical applications

  • Production quality control
    • Routine inspection of newly manufactured aerospace circuit breakers to confirm surface finish, assembly and marking integrity before release.
  • Incoming inspection
    • Verifying supplier parts during incoming goods checks to ensure conformity with labeling and seals.
  • Environmental and post-test assessment
    • Assessment after climatic, moisture or corrosion testing to detect deterioration in markings, seals or surfaces.
  • MRO and in-service checks
    • Maintenance, Repair and Overhaul (MRO) technicians and avionics inspectors use the visual method as a quick verification step during scheduled maintenance or troubleshooting.
  • Procurement and certification
    • Purchasing agents, quality assurance teams and certification bodies reference the standard to define acceptance criteria and inspection procedures.

Who uses this standard

  • Aerospace manufacturers and component suppliers
  • Quality assurance and inspection teams
  • MRO organizations and avionics technicians
  • Certification authorities and procurement departments
