AUTOMATIC CONDENSATION DETECTION
During cold weather the insulation resistance of certain electrical components in stationary rolling stock may be temporarily reduced due to the combined effect of surface pollution and local weather conditions. An atmospheric condensation detection system which gives prior warning to the staff concerned has been developed at the Vitry Testing Centre. This equipment also provides useful data for taking precautionary measures to deal with the problem.
