| Definition: | limit, if it exists, of the quotient of the conditional probability that the repair is completed within time interval (t, t + Δt) and Δt, when Δt tends to zero, given that the repair started at t = 0 and had not been completed before time t
Note 1 to entry: The instantaneous repair rate is related to repair time (192-07-19) and its constituent parts. Note 2 to entry: The unit of measurement of instantaneous repair rate is the unit of time to the power −1.
