This chapter describes processes involved in immunizing a spacecraft against spacecraft charging problems, and provides design guidelines. The system developer should demonstrate through design practices, test, and analysis that spacecraft charging effects will not cause a failure to meet mission objectives. Analysis should be used to evaluate a design for charging in the specified orbital environment. Testing usually ranks high among the choices to verify and validate the survivability of spacecraft hardware in a given environment. Some of the test discussed here include: material testing, component testing, assembly testing and system testing. The chapter provides general guidelines and quantitative recommendations on design guidelines/techniques that should be followed in hardening spacecraft systems to spacecraft charging effects. The design guidelines are divided into subsections: general, surface charging, internal charging, solar arrays, and special situations.
