Abstract

Certain embodiments herein are directed to systems and methods to predict failures in power systems equipment. In one embodiment, one or more life-span models associated with power systems equipment may be received. Examples of such life-span models may include a left-censoring model, a right-censoring model, and an interval-censoring model. An accuracy of the life-span models may be determined based at least in part on statistical analysis, such as a Weibull distribution analysis. A stability of the life-span models may also be determined, in certain embodiments herein.
