Top 4 Reasons JSWAG is Important for EWIS

Posted by Steve Floyd on March 4, 2025

 

At InterConnect Wiring, we are committed to ensuring the highest standards in EWIS (Electrical Wiring Interconnection Systems), particularly for military aircraft such as the F-16, F-22 and Vertical Lift Platforms like the UH-1 and AH-1 Helos. In our previous article What Is JSWAG? – InterConnect Wiring we wrote about What JSWAG is. Today, we are looking at the top 4 reasons JSWAG is important to EWIS. What does EWIS mean? – InterConnect Wiring

 

Why is JSWAG Important to EWIS and the EWIS Community?

1. Enhance Aircraft Safety & Reliability
By addressing wiring degradation, failure analysis, and maintenance improvements, JSWAG helps reduce in-flight malfunctions and electrical hazards, ultimately keeping the Warfighter safe.

2. Standardize Best Practices Across All Branches
Military aircraft often share similar wiring challenges, but different branches may approach them differently. JSWAG ensures that best practices are communicated across all services, leading to uniform solutions and efficiencies.

3. Reduce Sustainment Costs & Downtime
Wiring-related issues can lead to expensive repairs and extended aircraft downtime. Through proactive monitoring and maintenance guidelines, JSWAG helps reduce the life cycle costs of military aircraft.

4. Improve Training & Workforce Knowledge
A major focus of JSWAG is education and training. By providing updated maintenance procedures and best practices, JSWAG enhances the skill set of technicians, engineers, and maintainers working on military aircraft.

 

InterConnect Wiring’s Role in Supporting JSWAG’s Mission

As the leader of military aircraft wiring harnesses and electrical cockpit panels, InterConnect Wiring is aligned with JSWAG’s commitment to EWIS excellence. We support military aircraft sustainment by:

1. Providing high-quality wiring harnesses for legacy and next-generation aircraft such as the C-130, B-1B, B-2, F-15, F-16 and F-22.
2. Implementing JSWAG-recommended best practices in harness manufacturing.
3. Collaborating with military branch representatives, JSWAG Executive Steering Committee (ESC) Members, and industry experts to develop innovative EWIS solutions.

 

JSWAG plays a vital role in enhancing aircraft safety, standardizing maintenance practices, and advancing wiring technology across all military branches. Its impact on EWIS cannot be overstated. Without JSWAG’s leadership, wiring-related failures could jeopardize mission success, increase sustainment costs, and pose safety risks.

At InterConnect Wiring, we are proud to support the EWIS community and contribute to the ongoing efforts of JSWAG. By staying at the forefront of wiring innovation, we help ensure that military aircraft remain mission-ready, safe, and operational for years to come.
