What Does FS Stand For?
FS stands for Fail Safe
FS, or Fail Safe, refers to a design principle in engineering and systems management aimed at ensuring safety and reliability. It involves implementing mechanisms that prevent catastrophic failures, allowing systems to revert to a safe state in the event of a malfunction. The FS approach prioritizes risk reduction and human safety by incorporating redundancies and automatic failover processes, thereby minimizing potential hazards and enhancing operational stability.
