Reference Book for Component Failures needed
(OP)
I would like to ask you if you could recommend me some good book(s) which would be useful for failure analysis of the components failed in field.
Ideally the description of the potential failure mechanism for different component types, maybe some hints and troubleshooting and localizing the failed components in the devices or maybe examples of some intrusive laboratory inspections that may be performed by external laboratories and so on...
Something like Robert A. Pease's book "Troubleshooting Analog Circuits" for the design phase of analog circuits but for field failure analysis including power electronic components :)

I am especially Interested in AC/DC capacitors in power systems or UPS units and the power semiconductors ( IGBTs, SCRs... ) and their driver circuits maybe also batteries of the backup systems, arc flash hazard and so on.
So some literature for power electronic which is similar like Bob's book for low power analog circuitry.
