    Interpreting LARCAN Drawing Numbers Engineering drawings at LARCAN are based on the concept that an assembly or subassembly is simply a GROUP of component parts, thus when a G appears on a list, it means an "assembly". Thus a circuit board loaded with parts may be referenced in this manual as "21B1389G1".
