A consecutive k-out-of-n: G system consists of n linearly ordered components functions if and only if at least k consecutive components function. In this article we investigate the consecutive k-out-of-n: G system in a setup of multicomponent stress-strength model. Under this setup, a system consists of n components functions if and only if there are at least k consecutive components survive a common random stress. We consider reliability and its estimation of such a system whenever there is a change and no change in strength. We provide minimum variance unbiased estimation of system reliability when the stress and strength distributions are exponential with unknown scale parameters. A nonparametric minimum variance unbiased estimator is also provided.
