A Fuzzy Analytical Hierarchy Process for multiple equipment maintenance decision

Abstract

Condition Based Maintenance (CBM) technology is widely used in high-voltage electrical equipment. However, there are complex links between them, what makes the single decision can not meet the requirements of the actual production. This paper presents an improved method - Fuzzy Analytical Hierarchy Process (FAHP), which can deal with the uncertain decision-making factors and vague expertise, based on depth study of AHP. This paper Conducts a comparative analysis of examples and determines the optimal sequencing of the maintenance decision of four transformers with the actual work of a high pressure company. Examples show that the method is suitable for the maintenance of electrical equipment ordering which is affected by a variety of multiple factors. © the authors.
