MIL-R-83407C
4.5.23.2 ARC duration (see 3.28.2). Each relay shall be subjected to a minimum of 100,000 operations at a rate of 60 operations per second with 1 ampere resistive load at 24 V dc. Dynamic switching characteristics shall be tested as shown in figure 6. Observe the oscilloscope for turnoff characteristics and reject any relay that exhibits an ARC duration greater than specified in 3.28.2.

5. PACKAGING
5.1 Packaging. For acquisition purposes, the packaging requirements shall be as specified in the contract or order (see 6.2). When packaging of materiel is to be performed by DoD or in-house contractor personnel, these personnel need to contact the responsible packaging activity to ascertain packaging requirements. Packaging requirements are maintained by the Inventory Control Point's packaging activities within the Military Service or Defense Agency, or within the military service's system commands. Packaging data retrieval is available from the managing Military Department's or Defense Agency's automated packaging files, CD-ROM products, or by contacting the responsible packaging activity.
6. NOTES
(This section contains information of a general or explanatory nature that may be helpful, but is not mandatory.)
6.1 Intended use. Relays conforming to this specification are intended for use in dc or ac (single or polyphase) ground support electronic and communication equipment as a means of controlling the making and breaking of circuits for electrically operated equipment and devices.
CAUTION: Contacts should not be paralleled on the assumption that doing so will increase their switching capacity. Being paralleled for the sake of redundancy may result in make before break, due to one transfer contact operating slightly ahead of the other.
6.2 Acquisition requirements. Acquisition documents must specify the following:
a. Title, number, and date of the specification.
b. Issue of ASSIST to be cited in the solicitation, and if required, the specific issue of individual documents referenced (see 2.2).
c. Title, number, and date of the applicable specification sheet and the specification sheet PIN. d. Requirements for first article inspection (see 4.3).
e. Packaging requirements (see 5.1).
