Pair and a spare definition

My understanding of 'pare and a spare' is not what is given in this article. I was taught that 'pair and a spare' was two components operating in parallel for redundance, with a third unit (the 'spare') operating off-line in case one of the two primaries breaks down. This definition needs to be verified. 147.240.236.9 20:34, 26 June 2006 (UTC)[reply]


Damage tolerant design is different from fault-tolerant systems, perhaps being a sub-category. It is specific to structural/mechanical analysis involving imperfections in materials.
