Abstract
This paper presents a methodology for modifying failure rate and repair time of a distributor segment accounting the outage due to overloading and omission of critical repair time termed as repair tolerance time. Necessary relations have been derived for modifications of failure rate and repair time of a distributor and these modified failure rate/repair time have been used to evaluate average failure rate, average outage duration and average outage duration per year for distribution systems. The methodology has been implemented on a meshed distribution network and results have been compared with those obtained with unmodified failure rates/repair times.
