ED Decision 2023/013/R
STANDARD PARTS
(a) Standard parts are parts that are manufactured in complete compliance with an established industry, Agency, competent authority or other government specification which includes design, manufacturing, test and acceptance criteria, and uniform identification requirements. The specification should include all the information that is necessary to produce and verify conformity of the part. It should be published so that any party may manufacture the part. Examples of specifications are National Aerospace Standards (NAS), Army-Navy Aeronautical Standard (AN), Society of Automotive Engineers (SAE), SAE Sematec, Joint Electron Device Engineering Council, Joint Electron Tube Engineering Council, and American National Standards Institute (ANSI), EN Specifications, etc.
(b) To designate a part as a standard part, the TC holder or the declarant of a declaration of design compliance may issue a standard parts manual accepted by the competent authority of the original TC holder, or the declarant of a declaration of design compliance, or may make reference in the parts catalogue to the specification to be met by the standard part. Documentation that accompanies standard parts should clearly relate to the particular parts and contain a conformity statement plus both the manufacturing and supplier source. Some materials are subject to special conditions, such as storage conditions or life limitation, etc., and this should be included in the documentation and/or the material’s packaging.
(c) An EASA Form 1 or equivalent is not normally issued and, therefore, none should be expected.
AMC1 145.A.42(a)(iv) defines standard parts, their specifications, designation methods, required documentation, and notes that EASA Form 1 is not normally issued for them.
