Abstract
A repairable system under normal and abnormal weather conditions is analysed. The system can be in one of the three modes—normal, partial and total failure. Failure rates of system and rates of change of weather conditions are constant while the repair rates are arbitrary functions of time. The repair time distributions depend upon the state from which the repair starts and are invariant with the change of weather. Using regenerative point technique various reliability characteristics such as mean time to system failure, steady state availability, the probability that the repairman is busy, expected number of visits by repairman and expected profit earned by the system are obtained.
