            Electric railways are particularly

            Die Energieversorgung elektrischer Bahnen unterscheidet sich von üblichen elektrischen Energienetzen in


            - 2-phase networks
            - DC Systems
            - 16.7 Hz systems
            - Earth fault detection
            - mobile measurements in traction units

            Own standards and quality requirements

            - EN 50163
            - Transformer on the public grid
            - Transducer on the web side
            - Availability in traction units
            - Network is service provider for the traction units

            Application in the control room 

            e.g.:
            - Earth fault detection with automatic refresh
            - Real values of the voltages
            - Real values frequency
            - Recorder
            - Oscilloscope display of the conductor voltages
            - Vector representation in the 2-phase system
            PFR fault recorder systems for power networks
            More than just jammers
