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 include 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 such 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 materialโs packaging.
(c) An EASA Form 1 or equivalent is not normally issued and, therefore, none should be expected.
Standard parts must meet published industry or government specs with full design, test, and identification criteria. TC holders can designate them via accepted manuals or catalogue references. Documentation must include,
