The frequency and duration of service interruptions to equipment loads in an electric ship due to component failures in several shipboard electrical distribution systems are modeled using Markov simulations. A comparison is made between a distribution system based on ring bus topology and several distribution systems based on breaker-and-a-half topology. Systems based on breaker-and-a-half topology are found to be more reliable overall in terms of equipment availability for a given configuration of loads within the distribution system.
