ANSI/ESD S 20.20 was produced in response to a Defense Standardization
Office request to the ESD Association in the late 1990's to develop an
industry replacement for MIL-STD-1686. That process took about 2 years
and
20.20 was published as an ANSI accredited ESD Association standard in
1998.
It was adopted by DOD shortly thereafter. With respect to the Air Force,
ANSI/ESD S 20.20 is the ESD Program Development Standard that Program
Offices should be administering in acquisition contracts for any weapon
system/subsystem particularly those that are electronics driven (i.e.
Avionics). Thus all Air Force OEM and subcontractors should be
developing
their respective ESD Control program based on the provisions outlined in
20.20. Air Force operational and depot organizations must use Technical
Order (TO) 00-25-234, Section VII for the development and execution of
those
ESD Control Programs. The TO is consistent with the contents of 20.20
but
does contain unique processes that are equally unique to the operational
environment of the Air Force.

I was co-chairman of the ESD Association's 20.20 development working
group
and also orchestrated DOD approval of the final published document.

Hello Technet.

Does ANSI/ESD-S-20.20 replace MIL-STD-1686C?
