Abstract
We present the electrical ground support equipment (EGSE) for the ESA NewAthena WFI. A WFI Structural and Thermal Model (STM), and Engineering Model (EM) prototype consisting of the Camera Head Sub-System (CHS) and Detector Electronics Sub-System (DES) is under development and completion is expected to mid-2024. The use of the WFI EGSE for the CHS and DES test campaign within the Max Planck Institute for extra-terrestrial physics test facilities is also described.
