882 is a system safety standard and HDBK-454 is an electronic equipment design guideline. Your battery powered hand held radio is not really applicable to 882. If you apply 882 to your radio (unless I am missing something) the worst mishap category would be IV or negligible and more than likely requires no mitigation of the risk. 882 is normally applicable to a complex systems where somthing going wrong results in death, serious injury or destruction. It allows you to define potential mishaps and there likely frequency and make a decision on where the risk is acceptable and define mitigating actions to reduce the risk to an acceptable level. 454 is a design guideline that defines requirements for product safety, soldering, connectors and the like used in electrical equipment.

From: Charles Blackham <[email protected]> To: [email protected] Sent: Thursday, February 15, 2007 10:16:21 AM Subject: MIL-STD-882 Safety Hazard Analysis Group I'm looking into what is required in carrying out a Hazard Analysis on a small, battery powered, radio to MIL-HDBK-454. Would anyone care to indicate the size/level of detail typically required or point me in the right direction with examples. regards Charlie - This message is from the IEEE Product Safety Engineering Society emc-pstc discussion list.
