Abstract

Reliability of the electrical power supply is crucial for sustaining academic and administrative activities at higher education institutions; disruptions to the power source can hinder various operational activities, necessitating the use of generator sets (gensets) as backup power sources. This study aims to evaluate the performance of the backup generator set at Universitas Iskandar Muda based on operational and maintenance data from the 2022–2023 period. The evaluation involved analyzing the generator's capacity to meet electrical load demands, load levels, operating times, and instances of failure, as well as performance parameters such as AOT, MTBF, reliability, and availability. Performance calculations over the past two years indicate average reliability scores of 98.16 in 2022 and 97.31 in 2023. Meanwhile, average availability rates were 98.45% in 2022 and 98.18% in 2023; the data reveals that the reliability and availability levels of the generator fall into the "infrequent failure" category (R > 95%).
