Elevator suspension member monitoring

An elevator system, comprising:

• an elevator car;
• a suspension member that supports the elevator car and facilitates movement of the elevator car;
• and
• at least one processor configured to
• determine a condition of the suspension member based on a combination of an electrical inspection technique, a use indicator corresponding to an amount of use of the suspension member, and a mechanical characteristic indicator corresponding to at least one mechanical characteristic of the suspension member;
• determine to leave the suspension member in service when only the electrical inspection technique satisfies at least one undesired criteria and neither of the mechanical characteristic indicator or the use indicator satisfies another predetermined criteria;
• and
• determine to remove the suspension member from service based on an indication from the electrical inspection technique, indicating the undesired criteria of the suspension member and at least one of the mechanical characteristic indicator, and the use indicator satisfying one other predetermined criteria.
