2. Meaning and relevance of FMEA(C)
2.1 FMEA(C) principle
Let's never lose sight of the FMEA principle.
FMEA principle
Starting point: decomposition of the system into components.
Step 1: Identification of component failure modes.
Step 2: Effects and consequences of component failure modes.
Output: risks arising from component failures.
FMEA is an inductive method which starts with the elementary failures of components, then deduces what results from these failures, and what situations, due to these...

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.
