COURSE OVERVIEW

 This practical and highly-interactive course includes various practical sessions and exercises. Theory learnt will be applied using our state-of-the-art simulators. 

 

This course is designed to provide participants with a detailed and up-to-date overview of Failure Modes, Effects & Criticality Analysis (FMECA). It covers the reliability-centered maintenance (RCM), failure modes and effects analysis (FMEA) and FMECA methodology and standards; the types of failures in power equipment, system hierarchies and functional breakdown; the team formation, FMECA planning, failure modes and assessing failure effects; the severity ratings, occurrence ratings and estimation techniques; and the detection ratings and control measures, calculating risk priority number (RPN), criticality analysis basics and quantitative criticality assessment. 

 

During this interactive course, participants will learn the risk matrix and risk assessment models, ranking and prioritizing actions and linking FMECA with maintenance strategy; the FMECA reporting and documentation, FMECA for electrical systems, mechanical and rotating equipment and integration with safety and regulatory standards; the human errors as failure modes, task analysis and error likelihood, control room interface failures and training and procedural improvement; and when to use FMECA versus RCA, synergy between both techniques and using FMECA results to support RCA.
