About This Item
TS 10786 is a terminology standard that brings together the basic terms, definitions, and related mathematical concepts used in reliability for electrotechnical work. In general technical use, reliability describes the ability of a component, device, or system to perform a required function for a stated period under stated conditions, so consistent terminology is essential when engineering teams discuss failures, performance, and life behaviour.
How reliability concepts are organised
According to the scope given here, the standard covers safety concepts, failure concepts, and the classification of failures by cause, by their instantaneous condition, by their degree, and by combinations of condition and degree. These distinctions matter because the same event can be described from different analytical viewpoints: what caused it, what state it is in, and how severe it is. Clear definitions help align maintenance language, test reporting, and engineering analysis.
The “related mathematics” aspect points to the conceptual tools commonly used in reliability work, such as probability- and time-based reasoning. In general reliability engineering, such tools support modelling failure occurrence, comparing performance over time, and interpreting system behaviour. This standard serves as a controlled vocabulary for those ideas in electrotechnics rather than a device specification or test method document.
- Separates failure causes from the condition or manifestation of failure.
- Treats the instantaneous state and the degree of failure as distinct ideas.
- Collects core mathematical concepts used in reliability work within one terminology framework.
- Supports consistent technical communication in electrotechnical applications.
