The whole generating system consists of three subsystems viz: subsystem A , subsystem B and subsystem C. The subsystem A consists of one generating unit and one inbuilt transformer. The subsystem B also contains the same units and is connected in parallel to subsystem A. The output of this power system goes through the subsystem C that consists of one outer transformer and which may be further distributed as desired. The system has three types of states, viz: normal, degraded and failed. All types of failure rates and repair rates of inbuilt transformers are exponential while other repair rates are distributed quite generally. Supplementary Variable Technique has been employed to obtain various state probabilities and then the reliability parameters have been evaluated for the whole generating system.}, journal = {Journal of Mathematics and Statistics}, publisher = {Science Publications} }
