Maintainability of equipment -- Part 3: Verification and collection, analysis and presentation of data

This part of IEC 60706 describes the various aspects of verification necessary to ensure that the specified maintainability requirements of an item have been met and provides suitable procedures and test methods. While maintainability verification as such should be a mandatory part of any maintainability programme (see IEC 60300-3-10), each individual case requires appropriate methods to be carefully selected in order to ensure overall costeffectiveness. This standard also addresses the collection, analysis and presentation of maintainability related data, which may be required during, and at the completion of, design and during item production and operation.

FOREWORD
1) The International Electrotechnical Commission (IEC) is a worldwide organization for standardization comprising
all national electrotechnical committees (IEC National Committees). The object of IEC is to promote
international co-operation on all questions concerning standardization in the electrical and electronic fields. To
this end and in addition to other activities, IEC publishes International Standards, Technical Specifications,
Technical Reports, Publicly Available Specifications (PAS) and Guides (hereafter referred to as “IEC
Publication(s)”). Their preparation is entrusted to technical committees; any IEC National Committee interested
in the subject dealt with may participate in this preparatory work. International, governmental and non-
governmental organizations liaising with the IEC also participate in this preparation. IEC collaborates closely
with the International Organization for Standardization (ISO) in accordance with conditions determined by
agreement between the two organizations.
2) The formal decisions or agreements of IEC on technical matters express, as nearly as possible, an international
consensus of opinion on the relevant subjects since each technical committee has representation from all
interested IEC National Committees.
3) IEC Publications have the form of recommendations for international use and are accepted by IEC National
Committees in that sense. While all reasonable efforts are made to ensure that the technical content of IEC
Publications is accurate, IEC cannot be held responsible for the way in which they are used or for any
misinterpretation by any end user.
4) In order to promote international uniformity, IEC National Committees undertake to apply IEC Publications
transparently to the maximum extent possible in their national and regional publications. Any divergence
between any IEC Publication and the corresponding national or regional publication shall be clearly indicated in
the latter.
5) IEC provides no marking procedure to indicate its approval and cannot be rendered responsible for any
equipment declared to be in conformity with an IEC Publication.
6) All users should ensure that they have the latest edition of this publication.
7) No liability shall attach to IEC or its directors, employees, servants or agents including individual experts and
members of its technical committees and IEC National Committees for any personal injury, property damage or
other damage of any nature whatsoever, whether direct or indirect, or for costs (including legal fees) and
expenses arising out of the publication, use of, or reliance upon, this IEC Publication or any other IEC
Publications.
8) Attention is drawn to the Normative references cited in this publication. Use of the referenced publications is
indispensable for the correct application of this publication.
9) Attention is drawn to the possibility that some of the elements of this IEC Publication may be the subject of
patent rights. IEC shall not be held responsible for identifying any or all such patent rights.
International Standard IEC 60706-3 has been prepared by IEC technical committee 56:
Dependability.
This second edition cancels and replaces the first edition, published in 1983, and constitutes
a technical revision.
The major technical changes with regard to the first edition concern combining the original
Sections 6 and 7 from the first edition and adding the two statistical annexes from IEC 60706-6,
which have been included as Annexes B and C.

INTRODUCTION
The design of an item includes the need for efficient maintenance techniques to ensure that
the item continues to operate properly. Before it is put into service it is necessary to verify
that the proposed maintenance procedures can be executed as designed and the collection
and analysis of data is an essential part of the verification process.
The data used for verification may come from a variety of sources and what is used in
particular circumstances will depend on many factors, including what historical data are
available and the status of the design. For verification that maintainability targets have been
met, it is preferable to conduct tests that generate data on the product under review.
Historical data have to be sorted for relevance to the project and when useful data have been
selected, they are analysed to provide the information required.
There are a number of verification procedures that are explained in this standard with the
associated analysis techniques. They are designed to check the adequacy of the maintenance
procedures, the tools and equipment supplied for maintenance, the adequacy of the technical
publications and the ease of maintenance of the item. This enables improvements to be made
to the maintenance procedures and, if necessary, modifications to be carried out on the item
to improve maintainability. It is important to include any required changes to the design of the
item as early as possible, if possible before the start of production, in order to minimize costs.
This initial analysis is, in most cases, a statistical analysis based on a small sample of data. It
is therefore preferable that the collection and analysis of data should go on after the item
enters service so that the results achieved by the verification process are refined and
improved. These data are important to determine the adequacy of the maintenance support,
as this is not so easy to assess in an initial verification analysis.
IEC 60706-3 forms part of a hierarchy of standards dealing with dependability, as described
below.
IEC 60300-1 and IEC 60300-2 are the IEC top-level standards that provide guidance on how
to incorporate dependability, incorporating reliability, availability and maintainability, into
manufactured products. The top-level standard on maintainability is the application guide for
maintainability, IEC 60300-3-10, which forms part of the IEC 60300-3 series of standards. It
can be used to implement a maintainability programme covering the initiation, development
and in-service phases of a product, which form part of the tasks described in IEC 60300-2. It
also provides guidance on how the maintenance aspects of the tasks should be considered in
order to achieve optimum maintainability.

1 Scope
This part of IEC 60706 describes the various aspects of verification necessary to ensure that
the specified maintainability requirements of an item have been met and provides suitable
procedures and test methods. While maintainability verification as such should be a
mandatory part of any maintainability programme (see IEC 60300-3-10), each individual case
requires appropriate methods to be carefully selected in order to ensure overall cost-
effectiveness.
This standard also addresses the collection, analysis and presentation of maintainability
related data, which may be required during, and at the completion of, design and during item
production and operation.

3 Terms and definitions
For the purposes of this document, the terms and definitions given in IEC 60050(191),
together with the following definitions, apply.
3.1
customer selected equipment
portion of the item under consideration which has been specially selected by the customer
NOTE Generally the supplier has no control over the maintainability of this portion, but it should be considered in
the design of the item. Cooperation between customer and supplier is clearly desirable.
3.2
maintainability demonstration
activity performed on individual items or samples to indicate achievement of a specific
maintainability requirement and/or to generate maintainability data
3.3
maintainability verification
monitoring actions, inspections or both for the purpose of determining compliance by the
contractor with the maintainability requirements specified for an item
3.4
maintenance concept
interrelationship between the maintenance echelons, the indenture levels and the levels of
maintenance to be applied for the maintenance of an item
3.5
maintenance policy
general approach to the provision of maintenance and maintenance support based on the
objectives and policies of owners, users and customers
3.6
software support centre
centralized software maintenance service
4 Introduction to maintainability verification
4.1 Objective of verification
The objective is to verify that both qualitative and quantitative maintainability requirements
have been met within the specified performance limitations. This includes verification that the
defined maintenance activity has restored the item to the specified performance level. The
verification is applicable to hardware, software and maintenance facilities.
Maintainability verification is a process of assessing the results of maintainability experience.
This assessment can begin as soon as data and results are available and may continue
throughout the project and extend into field use.
This is further expanded with respect to
– qualitative maintainability requirements, see Clause 5,
– quantitative maintainability requirements, see Clause 6.
Demonstration procedures are described in Clause 7.

4.2 Maintenance support concepts influencing maintainability verification
When performing maintainability verification, it should be borne in mind that the following
maintenance support elements have a decisive influence on the effectiveness of the
maintenance process:
– maintenance facilities;
– support equipment;
– material support;
– maintenance personnel and training;
– technical documentation and manuals;
– transportation, handling and storage conditions.
IEC 60300-3-14 contains further details on maintenance support.
4.3 Methods of verification
Maintainability verification is a continuous process of generating, collecting, analysing and
evaluating maintainability related data as they become available in the course of project
development, and comparing results with specified maintainability requirements.
Methods of maintainability verification differ according to the programme phase, as follows:
a) analysis and review. This includes analysis of historical data, comparisons with the results
of design reviews and maintainability predictions. This may include analysis of field data
later in the life cycle;
b) special studies. Conducted during the concept and definition or design and development
phases to investigate general or detailed problems. Examples include ease-of-
maintenance studies, maintenance task analysis and simulation studies;
c) demonstration tests. Performed at the end of the design and development phase on
prototype or early production items, if the analytical means or special studies do not give
sufficient evidence as to whether maintainability conforms to specified requirements.
d) review of operational experience. Verification may be left to operational experience and
review of field data, correlated, if appropriate, with the review and analysis of historical
data;
e) spatial imaging simulation. Three-dimensional computer simulations of maintenance
actions may be performed at appropriate times throughout the design process to verify
that the proposed sequence of actions, access and other workspace considerations
support the achievement of the required level of maintainability.
4.4 Verification process
The procedural elements of the verification process are as follows:
a) identification and activation of possible sources of data
in the early project phases, only historical data of comparable previous items can be used.
Later, design, manufacturing, test and finally field data become available. Maintainability
demonstrations in this context provide a special data source for the generation of
maintainability data under simulated conditions;

b) acquisition and analysis of data
data collection, review and screening to ensure their applicability;
c) evaluation
processing of data using mathematical models or checklists to obtain quantitative
characteristics or qualitative properties of maintainability;
d) comparison with requirements
the results of the evaluation are compared with specified maintainability characteristics
and properties to check whethe
