A method was proposed for construction of the generalized distributions employed in the graphs‐analytical method which makes use of the experimental data to estimate the distribution parameters of the plant time to failure. The existence conditions for generalized distributions were formulated. The resources of the proposed approach were illustrated by way of analysis of the modeled sample data.
