Introduction Dear reader! Work in or at electric railway installations requires a number of safety steps to minimise or eliminate dangers caused by moving rail vehicles or by electric current. Such safety steps are not always carried out by employees of the railway company, but in emergency cases also by fire brigades or other rescue workers. General Special importance is given to the clear marking of working limits, as well as a permanently secured absence of voltage within these working limits. Specially in train stations with unclear criss-crossing of lines, or on open railtrack with a number of lines running in parallel over long distances and influencing each other, securing the working place is essential. Also the subject of visibility has importance as in many cases an earthing device at the same time marks the working limit. Under any circumstance this working limit needs to be clearly visible, not only at daylight, but also at night, in tunnels, or when a number of pylons and lines in the background make recognition of an earthing rod difficult. Frequently work needs to be carried out during train operation hours, in often very short intervalls without trains, so handling of material is rough. Material will be more strained than from similar operations in utility networks, wear is considerable, and at the same time concessions towards reliability are to be excluded. 5

Introduction General High voltage detectors which are to be handled with care as a safety-relevant measuring device, have to withstand many downfalls into the stony roadbed. Earthing material which needs to be carried to the working place over long distances may already suffer superficial damages, but these must not compromise its usage. In order to meet these special requirements, railway material in most cases has its own standards. One example among others is the standard for high voltage detectors for catenary wires (contact wire detector), or the fact that for earthing material higher final temperatures in case of a short circuit are admissible. This way cross-sections of copper leads can be restricted, to make an earthing device portable even over longer distances. In the course of many years a multitude of different products for testing absence of voltage, earthing and short-circuiting, potential equation, and for marking working limits were developed in cooperation with German Railway DB, Austrian National Railways ÖBB, Swiss National Railways SBB, Belgian Railway SNCB, and other European rail companies. Before a product may be named railway material, it has to fulfill requirements demanded by the user, and in many cases pass a practical test over several weeks, to finally pass a formal approval procedure by the customer. 6

Feeding Rod for Traction Current Usage: As all means of urban public transport, also tram vehicles have to be maintained, repaired or examined. Usually this happens in closed workshop halls, where all necessary work can be carried out independently from weather, under optimum conditions. In these workshops, tram vehicles can be inspected and maintained from all sides, also from underneath and on the top side. Some halls are also equipped with heavy-duty roof cranes, in order to lift complete tram vehicles. For safety reasons, in many cases it is impossible to install the contact wire for power supply in the entire workshop. Either the contact wire ends a few metres in front of the hall, or it continues for a short distance into the hall and ends there. Without contact wire it is neither possible to manouvre tram vehicles inside the hall, nor to test certain electric functions. One possible solution for this problem is to manouvre tram vehicles with haulers inside the hall, and to secure power supply for tests of certain functions by means of a power feeding conductor which is connected to the vehicle. ARCUS has developed a system in cooperation with a number of transport companies. It provides the tram vehicle with power through its pantograph, in order to manouvre and test the tram inside the workshop hall. Tram Further information can be found in our Technical Information Feeder Rod for Tram Vehicle Power Supply. 45
