Downloaded from https://www.everyspec.com MIL-STD-322B 20 March 1984 APPENDIX A ILLUSTRATIVE EXAMPLE OF THE APPLICATION OF THE OSTR PROCEDURE 10. GENERiL 10.1 Objective. To determine the 1% firing level with 99% confidence of an electric detonator, capacitor discharge using a capacitor of 4.7A F. 10.2 Test plan. An OSTR, NO = 79 TMP = .0944wds conducted. The stimu- lating voltage was varied seventy-nine units under test”and nine changes of I response were obtained as indicated in test data. 10.3 Analysis of test data. Test data were subjected to analysis assum- ing a Meibull distribution which is robust (insensitive to the form of the distribution). 10.4 Summary of test results.
