| Description: | Frequency of maintenance outages in an annual time frame |
Generator Maintenance Frequency sets the number of maintenance events that will occur of the given type each year. This is usually for scheduling large surveys or overhauls rather than more regular, smaller maintenance events.
| Property | Value | Units | Band | Date From |
| Maintenance Frequency | 1 | - | 1 | 1/01/2006 |
| Maintenance Frequency | 0 | - | 1 | 1/01/2007 |
| Maintenance Frequency | 1 | - | 1 | 1/01/2009 |
| Maintenance Frequency | 0 | - | 1 | 1/01/2010 |
| Mean Time to Repair | 300 | hrs | 1 |
In this example a major survey of 300 hours must be taken every three
years (in 2006 and 2009).
Different types of maintenance can be modeled by separating the outage types by band number as in the examples in the Maintenance Rate topic.
