Definitions

IEC 60812 (3)

any part, component, device, subsystem, functional unit,

equipment or system that can be individually considered
NOTE 1 An item may consist of hardware, software or
both, and may also in particular cases include people.
NOTE 2 A number of items, e.g. a population of items or
a sample, may itself be considered as an item.

Definitions
Item

IEC 60812 (3.1)

 Definitions
failure
termination of the ability of an item to
perform a required function

IEC 60812 (3.2)

state of an item characterized by the inability to perform a required

function, excluding the inability during preventive maintenance or
other planned actions, or due to lack of external resources
NOTE 1 A fault is often the result of a failure of the item itself, but
may exist without prior failure.
NOTE 2 In this document fault is used interchangeably with the
term failure for historical reasons.

Definitions
fault

IEC 60812 (3.3)

 Definitions
failure effect
consequence of a failure mode in terms of
the operation, function or status of the item

IEC 60812 (3.4)

 Definitions
failure mode
manner in which an item fails

IEC 60812 (3.5)

 Definitions

combination of the severity of an effect
and the frequency of its occurrence or
other attributes of a failure as a measure
of the need for addressing and mitigation

IEC 60812 (3.6)

set of interrelated or interacting elements

NOTE 1 In the context of dependability, a system will have
a) defined purposes expressed in terms of required functions;
b) stated conditions of operation use
c) a defined boundary.
NOTE 2 The structure of a system is hierarchical.

Definitions
