7. Conclusion
Appendix , the reader can consult an example.
The analysis of failure modes and their effects, with or without their criticality, is a logical and common-sense approach. Admitting that no system is infallible, it consists in identifying, describing and assessing the risks arising from failures. Well-structured and systematic, FMEA(C) enables you to achieve this objective with confidence.
It is relevant whenever the failure modes of components and the internal workings of the system are, or can be, well known. It should accompany the life of any system designed and built with human brains and hands.
It has limitations due to the method itself (unsuited to representing system dynamics, the time dimension and logical combinations) and the information available...

Appendix 1: FMEA for a lamp post
To illustrate our approach, here's a virtual example of a FMEA analysis. In order to present a fairly small FMECA, the system studied is a simple object and the decomposition is not detailed. This analysis has no claim to relevance, and is intended only to illustrate the approach.
The object under consideration is an ordinary floor lamp.
