GR 2836 TOC.i01Contents

This document provides generic requirements for assuring corrosion resistance of telecommunication equipment in outdoor environments. It outlines various preconditioning methods to prepare equipment for corrosion testing, such as temperature cycling with humidity or preconditioning for flooded conditions. It also describes different types of corrosion tests including tests for resistance to aqueous corrosion using salt fog or temperature cycling with humidity. Tests for resistance to corrosion from airborne contaminants like mixed flowing gas are also covered. The document concludes with requirements for stress corrosion cracking tests on materials like copper-zinc alloys, stainless steel, and aluminum.
