Operation principle and functions of the stray currents monitoring system
- principle is based on potential measurement with stray currents monitoring system;
- continuous track rails potential monitoring during operation;
- potential values displaying and archiving in central station;
- analysis and automatic detection of sections with damaged insulation;
- data access in real time mode via SCADA;
- regulating standard — EN 50122-2/IEC 62128-2.
Running rail section should be certified according to insulation standards requirements before SCMS implementation and potential measurement.
