Abstract
With increased emphasis on reliability and cost control, engineers are striving to achieve more reliable electrical power systems and at the same time minimize the costs associated with building, operating, and maintaining them. This paper covers the details of an easy to use PC-based computer model that can calculate the availability and reliability of electrical power systems and can determine the cost impact due to loss of production associated with the failure of a segment of the system
