Application of reliability centered maintenance in electricity distribution company

The paper deals with description of basic principles of reliably centered maintenance and software for the maintenance optimization of equipment in electric power engineering. The aim of the reliability centered maintenance is more effectively maintenance strategy of equipment. The inputs are databases of outages, maintenance, equipment condition and financial flow. Software connects two approaches optimal maintenance interval and equipment maintenance order according condition to the one software. It works on databases of real electricity distribution company. Furthermore the developed software seems to be useful in the various industry branches. The software provides data for responsible and logical decisions and data for efficient maintenance strategy and feedback system. Result is either optimal maintenance interval for groups of equipments or equipment maintenance order according to its importance and condition on the basis of real data.
