Electrical Assembly, Integration, and Testing (AIT)
Comprehensive execution, installation, and testing process for electrical systems and products.
Internal Electrical Work
Internal Electrical Work of a specific system, building, or product is currently in the active stage of execution, installation, or review. It generally signifies that:
- Work is Underway: Electricians or technicians are actively engaged in installing conduits, wiring, electrical panels, and components.
- Specific Scope: Focuses on internal electrical systems rather than external power or utility connections.
- Project Stage: Typically during the “rough-in” or “second fix” phase, before final finishes like drywall.
- Workflow Status: Indicates project progress and team responsibility within an ERP or management system.
Assembly and Integration
- PCB Assembly (PCBA): Mounting electronic components using SMT or THT, followed by soldering.
- Sub-assembly: Building smaller units like wiring harnesses or power supplies.
- Final Product Assembly (Box Build): Integrating all components into the final enclosure.
- Finishing Processes: Applying protective or aesthetic finishes such as powder coating.
Testing and Quality Control
- In-Process Inspection: Quality checks at each stage of assembly.
- Electrical Testing: Measuring resistance, voltage, and capacitance to ensure compliance.
- Functional Testing: Ensuring the product operates correctly under simulated conditions.
- Safety and Certification Testing: Compliance with CE, FCC, UL, etc.
- Environmental Testing: Evaluating durability under extreme conditions.
Packaging and Distribution
- Final Quality Audit: Full inspection before shipment.
- Packaging: Ensuring damage-free delivery.
- Shipping: Dispatching to customers or distribution centers.
