This paper deals with reliability analysis of a complex system consisting of two subsystems, connected in parallel. Each subsystem consists of a generator, one main switchboard and a given number of auxiliary switchboards. Two models of this system are studied. The reliability of the system with its imposed conditions is then calculated using the Boolean function technique and combinatorial methods. Some special cases are studied and a numerical example is provided.
