Failure Mode and Effect Analysis (FMEA) is a tool used for assessing probable failure modes and their reasons. It aids in ranking the failure modes and mentions remedial actions for the avoidance of sudden failures in system and enhancement in availability of system. In this work, an attempt has been made to use FMEA for the commutator of series D C motor. This approach is helpful in ensuring effective motor performance. Key Words: FMEA, RPN, CommutatorReferences
