Abstract
In this paper, we establish that the usual stochastic, hazard rate, reversed hazard rate, likelihood ratio, dispersive and star orders are all preserved for parallel systems under exponentiated models for lifetimes of components. We then use the multiple-outlier exponentiated gamma models to illustrate this result. Finally, we consider the dual family with exponentiated survival function and establish similar results for series systems. The results established here extend some well-known results for series and parallel systems arising from different exponentiated distributions such as generalized exponential and exponentiated Weibull, established previously in the literature.
