Abstract
The performance of engineering systems is not deterministic but rather controlled by the uncertainties in the variables affecting that performance. The evaluation of the probability of non-performance can be carried out implementing methods of reliability theory. This work presents a brief discussion of these methods and their applications to four problems relevant to risk analysis of power components and systems: transmission towers, pole distribution lines, the calibration of factored equations for performance-based design, and the reliability updating of existing structures under change of service conditions.
