scope:
This module states the requirements when using voltage testing devices, portable earthing equipment and temporary continuity jumpers on 25 kV a.c. electrified lines.
The requirements for assembly, maintenance and care of voltage testing devices, portable earthing equipment and temporary continuity jumpers are stated in Network Rail standard NR/L3/ELP/27237. It is applicable to Network Rail personnel and to Network Rail's contractors.
To provide a consistent approach to working on or about 25 kV a.c. electrified lines, Train Operating Companies may, as best practice, apply this standard in full on infrastructure they control.
Purpose
This module will produce a consistent approach to using voltage testing devices, portable earthing equipment and temporary continuity jumpers on 25 kV a.c. electrified lines. Further requirements for working on or about the electrified lines are contained in the Rule Book Module AC (GE/RT8000/AC).
