About the Failure-Mode Code (click to expand)
The mechanism code EXP shown on this card is the KB's internal damage-mechanism abbreviation (not an ISO 14224 code); it describes how the equipment failed. The 'ISO 14224 Mapping' block above maps it to the correct ISO functional failure code (which describes what the equipment failed to do) — these are two distinct dimensions in ISO 14224. The mechanism follows the narrative in the card body.
