Using the data from the truck example, calculate the generators' MTBR (for-cause). After two
years, the fleet had accumulated 1,000,000 operating hours. There were 100 incidents in which
a truck broke down due to generator failure. Overall, there were 1,200 "maintenance events"
involving generators, as follows:
100 on-equipment repairs (by turning wrenches, screwdrivers, etc.)
200 removals to facilitate other maintenance (50 of these resulted in damage to the
generators).
900 removals for-cause that were forwarded to the depot for repair, where 600 were identified
as design or manufacturing related problems Answer-1,111 hours
