Summary	This report presents the results of a study of the quality assurance and reliability (QA & R) practices employed by the conventional electric power generating industry to provide a fram of reference for PV (photovoltaics) program QA & R activities. The power industry is, within the past several years, adopting many of the reliability/maintainability program elements originally applied in military and space programs. These efforts coupled with the more traditional quality assurance practices are resulting in substantial operating plant cost savings.
