Polaris

The Polaris performs a continuous monitoring of parallel connecting cables in 2 x 25 kV railway systems, which typically carry the return current. If the connection of one of these cables deteriorates, it will be detected and selectively displayed. In addition, any undesired increase of the earth potential is detected and displayed. The above events are remotely reported to the control room. This enables the railway asset management to send the service team to the point of failure in a targeted manner.
