Remote control of catenary switches

Central operation of the high-voltage facilities from the traction-current centre in Spiez.
Basic agreement between SBB and BLS about operational management.
Integration of the control of the high-voltage facilities of the Lötschberg base tunnel.
Integration of the remote control of the traction-current facilities in the Emmental.
Project objectives:
To operate the high-voltage facilities from the central traction-current centre in Spiez. |
|
| To monitor the facilities around the clock to ensure that faults in the network can be recognised quickly and that trouble-shooting can be organised equally quickly. | |
| To control all network circuits centrally to ensure that work for local circuits becomes largely superfluous, which will free up resources for actual maintenance and construction work, while increasingly shorter intervals can be put to more efficient use. |
The project involves...
| Extension of the central traction-current centre in Spiez (concluded) | |
| Replacement of the Integra relay control system in the substations and sectioning points in Spiez, Frutigen, Kandersteg and Hohtenn (planned) | |
| Replacement of the control systems of phase protection lengths and automated power supply point operation (under construction) | |
| Construction of the remote-control facilities in the Emmental (under construction) |
|
| Harmonisation of traction-current management with rail operations management (Aare Valley and Upper Valais) | |
| Removal of the panoramic wall in the Spiez traction-current centre, integration of all the operating elements into the traction-current control system. |
