Abstract
This paper describes critical assembly process qualifications, acceptance criteria, and worker training of ITER Central Solenoid Assembly. Coaxial joint assembly was qualified and trained to achieve resistance below 4.1 nOhm. The electrical insulation process was qualified to 30 kV and 15 kV under Paschen conditions. Shear pin drilling and installation within specified tolerance was achieved. Modules were lifted and positioned within 2 mm. The lessons learned, and subsequent work execution onsite within the IO facility assembly hall are also presented.
