Abstract	Purpose: Suggests a method to compute availability of the main part i.e. Steam- generation part of a Thermal Power Plant by taking into consideration the repair/ failure rates of switch-over devices. This part contains gas classifier, crushing mills and boilers as its subsystems. Design/ Methodology/ Approach:. Assuming constant failure and repair rates, transition diagram of the system is drawn and problem is formulated using Markov Method. The governing difference equations are solved recursively for a steady state. Findings: System is analyzed for long run availability followed by illustration, table and graph. Originality / Value: It will help in increasing overall performance of Thermal Power Plant.
