A electric circuit has 15 joints. Each of them is likely to be defective of. In how many
different ways may the circuit have just five defectives if each joint defect probability of
failure is 0.1?
Derive the expression for standard deviation of binomial distribution.
A point A and B are connected through a relay network as shown below. The probability of
each relay functioning properly is 0.8. What is the probability that a signal can pass
successfully from A to B.

Consider that there are three generating units of capacities 25 MW, 25 MW & 50 MW
respectively. Each unit has a failure rate of 0.01 f/day and a repair rate of 0.49 r/day.
(a) Using sequential addition method, determine a capacity outage cumulative probability
table.
(b) Compare the above with the Bernoullis principle.
(c) Compute COPT, if the 50 MW unit is to be removed.
Evaluate the failure rate, average outage time and annual outage time of the load point L in
figure below. If each busbar is 100% reliable and each line has a permanent failure rate of
0.5 f/yr, a temporary failure rate of 2 f/yr, a repair time of 8 hours and a reclosure time of 10
minutes.
