Scope

1.1 This test method describes a procedure for acoustic emission (AE) testing of insulated aerial personnel devices.

1.1.1 Equipment Covered- This test method covers the following types of vehicle-mounted insulated aerial personnel devices:

1.1.1.1 Extensible boom aerial personnel devices,

1.1.1.2 Articulating boom aerial personnel devices, and

1.1.1.3 Any combination of 1.1.1.1 and 1.1.1.2.

1.1.2 Equipment Not Covered- This test method does not cover any of the following equipment:

1.1.2.1 Noninsulated aerial devices,

1.1.2.2 Material-handling aerial devices,

1.1.2.3 Digger-derricks with platform, and

1.1.2.4 Cranes with platform.

1.2 The AE test method is used to detect and area-locate emission sources. Verification of emission sources may require the use of other nondestructive test (NDT) methods, such as radiography, ultrasonics, magnetic particle, liquid penetrant, and visual inspection.

1.3 The values given in inch-pound units are to be regarded as the standard. The SI units given in parentheses are for information only.

1.4 This standard does not purport to address all of the safety concerns, if any, associated with its use. It is the responsibility of the user of this standard to establish appropriate safety and health practices and determine the applicability of regulatory limitations prior to use.
