An overhaul is sometimes called a major repair, although personally I don’t like this term as it is highly confusing. In most cases, when an overhaul is required, the operator will provide the workshop with a component which is generally serviceable except for the fact that it has reached it’s hard time limit. This means that there will be no defect syndromes to take care off and no defect description as such.

The discarding and replacement of parts which have life limits within the components or need to be replaced whenever the component is torn down (such as seals)

Threshold property of a maintenance phase is used to specify an age interval when a maintenance task will be performed
