Overhead Contact Line Training
This course equips participants with essential skills to master 25 kV AC Overhead Contact Line (OCL) systems on railways. Learners will gain expertise in planning and installing OCL on 300 m double-track segments, conducting thorough inspections using visual, mechanical, and thermographic methods, diagnosing defects like wear and tension issues, applying safety protocols including isolation, lockout/tagout (LOTO), PPE, and risk controls. Additionally, it covers technical calculations for sag, tension, and clearances, along with documentation for compliant and reliable rail infrastructure maintenance and operations.
