This report consists logically of results from two parts: specific aspects for stove guard and guidance when using FTA (Fault Tree Analysis) for analysis of stove guard. The results concerning specific aspects for stove guard show how to structure and evaluate prerequisites. The results of the FTA analysis of stove guard show leaves, subtrees and a number of fault trees representing dangerous or unwanted top events.A limited state-of-the-art evaluation has been made for stove guards. Before an FTA can be applied it is necessary to identify system limitations, borders and terminology in order to be clear what is included and not. Guidance is given for this. FTA is a suitable method mainly because it is easy to understand and survey. In many cases only two gate types are needed; OR and AND. The keys for successful handling of fault tree are the definitions of leaves and subtrees and finding the most suitable level of abstraction. In this report a textual representation is used for fault trees. The advantages are that the representation is tool independent and that it is more compact than graphical representation.
