AUTOMATIC MONITORING DEVICE FOR OVERHEAD CONTACT SYSTEM

There are ten electric equipment inspection cars for both conventional lines and Shinkansen of JNR. The data measured by them is useful for the maintenance of electric equipment. Automation and reduction of labor are required increasingly to ensure rational management and to raise the reliability of electric equipment. But, there are two important problems. They are establishment of the diagnosing technique for abnormalities and troubles with trolley-wire-supported equipment at high running speeds, and development of diagnosing devices without any measuring pantograph. So the diagnostics of overhead contact systems by an automatic monitoring device (ITC with shutter) have been researched. This paper describes the research.
