Study Notes

Fuse Designations and Relay Functions

  • Fuse designations are represented by letters: A, B, C, D, and others, indicating different types of fuses.
  • Specific relays and their purposes include:
    • APB: Low air pressure alarm push button.
    • AS: Approach locking stick relay facilitating control mechanisms.
    • CC: Switch circuit control ensuring circuits function correctly.
    • CO: Call on signal control relay for communication.
    • COS: Operational control stick relay for call functions.

Energy Prefixes and Control Systems

  • High and low voltage energy prefixes include:
    • BH: Positive DC energy (high voltage).
    • BX: Positive AC energy.
    • CH: Negative DC energy.
    • CX: Negative AC energy.
  • Common voltage references:
    • C24: 24 volt DC common.
    • CBX24: 24 volt AC flashing light energy.
    • CX24: 24 volt AC common.

Signal Light and Home Control Systems

  • Various signal light controls include:
    • G: General signal light control.
    • GD: Ground detector for ensuring safety.
    • H: Home control relay for local operations.
    • HG: Caution signal light control for alerts.
    • HV: Home signal clear stop relay for operational signaling.

Switching and Control Relays

  • Control systems utilize different relays:
    • LS: Switch locking stick relay to maintain safety.
    • NWC: Normal switch correspondence relay for standard operations.
    • RWP: Reverse switch repeater relay for alternate signaling.
    • OS: Overload stick relay to prevent system damage.

Track and Train Control

  • Components for track management include:
    • T: Track relay for detecting conditions of the rail.
    • TP: Track repeater relay for system diagnostics.
    • TOH: Train order home control relay for train operations.
    • TT: Track transformer for energy distribution across the track.

Time and Speed Management

  • Several relays facilitate timing and speed indications:
    • U: Time element relay for release mechanisms.
    • UG: Speed indicator light control for train velocity monitoring.
    • UR: Time element relay for operational timing.

Power and Battery Systems

  • Power management includes:
    • LB: 14 volt DC line battery for power supply.
    • VB: 14 volt DC local battery for localized power.
    • TB: 14 volt DC tower battery for operational towers.

Miscellaneous Functions
