Abstract
With the introduction of reliability engineering, electrical power system reliability has become an important basis for decision-making in the power industry. Two operation cases of electrical power systems are considered in this article. When the system is in an ordinary way, the influence between two system components will affect the importance measure of one component. When some component is in maintenance, preventive maintenance for working components and corrective maintenance for failed components can be executed simultaneously to enhance electrical power system performance. In view of the above two cases, two importance measures are proposed to effectively guide the preventive maintenance, aiming to improve the system performance within a limited budget. Reliability analysis procedure and methods applied toward the two importance measures are then developed and illustrated with the analysis on a Dual Element Spot Network system with double power supplies and double loads. Finally, a strategy for preventive maintenance is proposed by ranking the importance of these components.
