Abstract
This paper presents a method of assessing cable routing for systems with significant cabling to help system engineers make risk-in- formed decisions on cable routing and cable bundle management. We present the Cable Routing Failure Analysis (CRFA) method of cable routing planning that integrates with system architecture tools such as functional modeling and function failure analysis. CRFA is intended to be used during the early conceptual stage of system design although it may also be useful for retrofits or overhauls of existing systems.
