==== Regulatory Standards ====
Avionics installation is governed by strict regulatory frameworks to ensure the safety and reliability of aircraft systems. In the United States, the Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) sets the standards for avionics installations. These include guidelines for:
* '''System Performance''': Avionics systems must meet performance benchmarks as defined by the FAA, ensuring they function correctly in all phases of flight.
* '''Certification''': Shops performing installations must be FAA-certified, and their technicians often hold certifications such as the General Radiotelephone Operator License (GROL).
* '''Inspections''': Aircraft equipped with newly installed avionics systems must undergo rigorous inspections before being cleared for flight, including both ground and flight tests.
