3A single failure is a failure that results in the loss of capability of a system or component to perform its intended safety function(s) and any consequential failure(s) that result from it. The single failure criterion is a criterion (or requirement) applied to a system such that it must be capable of performing its task in the presence of any single failure. (See para. 7.25.)
Studies of Stability to Transients1The ‘critical fault clearing time’ is the maximum fault duration for which a system remains stable.
