Reliability
Distribution reliability primarily relates to equipment outages and
customer interruptions. In normal operating conditions, all equipment
(except standby) is energized and all customers are energized. Scheduled
and unscheduled events disrupt normal operating conditions and can
lead to outages and interruptions.
Several key definitions relating to distribution reliability include:
Contingency
Open Circuit
Fault
Outage
Momentary Interruption
Momentary Interruption Event
Sustained Interruption
Availability vs Unavailability
Availability is the probability of something being energized. It is the most
basic aspect of reliability and is typically measured in percent or per-unit. The
complement of availability is unavailability.
Availability the probability of being energized.
Unavailability the probability of not being energized.
Annual interruption times associated with different levels of availability. A
developing nation may have "one nine" of availability while an internet data
center may have "nine nines" of availability for their servers.
Reliability
The ability of an item to perform a required function, under given
environmental and operational conditions and for a stated period
of time (ISO8402).
The term item is used here to denote any component,
subsystem, or system that can be considered as an entity.
A required function may be a single function or a combination
of functions that is necessary to provide a specified service.
All technical items (components, subsystems, systems) are
designed to perform one or more (required) functions.
For a hardware item to be reliable, it must do more than meet
an initial factory performance or quality specification-it must
operate satisfactorily for a specified period of time in the actual
application for which it is intended.
Quality
The totality of features and characteristics of a product or service that
bear on its ability to satisfy stated or implied needs (ISO8402).
Quality is also sometimes defined as conformance to specifications
The quality of a product is characterized not only by its conformity
to specifications at the time it is supplied to the user, but also by its
ability to meet these specifications over its entire lifetime.

Availability
The ability of an item (under combined aspects of its reliability,
maintainability and maintenance support) to perform its required
function at a stated instant of time or over a stated period of time
(BS4778).

Example
A certain item is manufactured at two plants. Plant 1 makes 70% of the
requirement and plant 2 makes 30%. From plant 1, 90% meet a
particular standard and from plant 2 only 80%. Evaluate, a). Out of
every 100 items purchased by a customer, how many will be up to
standard and, b). Given that an item is standard, what is the probability
that it was made in plant 2.

Example
Consider a system containing two components A and B
and assume that the system fails only if both A and B
fail. Deduce the probability of system failure if Q A and
QB are the probabilities of failure of the respective
components.

Event trees
An event tree is a pictorial representation of all the
events which can occur in a system. It is defined as a
tree because the pictorial representation gradually fans
out like the branches of a tree as an increasing number
of events are considered.
The method can be used either for systems in which all
components are continuously operating or for systems
in which some or all of the components are in a
standby mode that involve sequential operational logic
and switching.
