Ives ; easy to agree with you on this one ;
my first question would be how is the mysterious numero 3 arrived to :
statistically validated ? = impaired bards from field ?
cost validated ? = exceeds scrap value ? ; etc.
If you'll get no logic behind the No plucked from air ;
I'd feel no obligations to be comfortable with it neither .
Considering each case variations ; sounds like a managerial broad brush
in action .
Don't let the turkeys get you = each case should be considered on it's
merits .

See you

> TechNetters, what limits are you using with respect to localized pcba

> such as:
> *       Solder joint reflow
> *       Component removal/replacement
>
> When I say limits I'm referring to things such as number of
> occurrences.  We
> currently use a limit of 3 repairs per site.  If you use a similar
> approach,
> what is your limit.  If you use a different approach, please enlighten
> me.
> I expect at least one reply to say that repair occurrences are
> unlimited as
> long as workmanship meets standards.  I don't feel comfortable with
> this.
