StandardDetails

This part of IEC 60300 provides guidance for an engineering system’s dependability and describes a process for realization of system dependability through the system life cycle. This standard is applicable to new system development and for enhancement of existing systems involving interactions of system functions consisting of hardware, software and human elements. This standard also applies to providers of subsystems and suppliers of products that seek system information and criteria for system integration. Methods and tools are provided for system dependability assessment and verification of results for achievement of dependability objectives.
