Technological breakdowns in the Samara electric power networks are analyzed. This enables the statistics to be generalized, reveals the extent of breakdowns and enables the effect of systematic and seasonal factors on the network to be estimated. This provides the possibility of using the results obtained to develop organizational and technical measures to eliminate and prevent the reasons for different forms of technological breakdowns with the aim of increasing the operating efficiency of the power network and its operating reliability, and to reduce the number of breakdowns in the electric power networks.

In optimizing and managing the life cycles of submersible electrical equipment (SEE) for oil production, an integrated approach to the organization of maintenance and repairs (MRO) is advisable based on the development of a more advanced strategy for carrying out repair cycles. It is stated that the maintenance and repair strategies adopted by the oil industry do not fully ensure operational efficiency, which leads to an increase in premature equipment failures, a reduction in turnaround times and, as a result, losses for oil companies. The advantages and disadvantages of approaches to organizing the operation of SEE on the operating time and the actual state in the planning, implementation of maintenance and repair, as well as the feasibility of their complex application are evaluated. It is proposed to use statistical models to make an informed decision on determining the composition and period of MRO, forecasting the boundary states of sets in general and specific SEE electrical installations. At a given operating time, it is possible to determine the basic laws of the appearance of defects and the mean time between failures (MTBF) of the elements, as well as the fleet of equipment of oil-producing enterprises as a whole. The results obtained are the rationale for a set of recommendations to improve operational efficiency and optimize life cycle management of submersible electrical equipment for oil production.
