1.2 Components
1. Battery charger 110 V/2-10 V DC.
2. Feed battery (1 to 4 cells).
3. Fuse and link.
4. Regulating resistance (adjustable) 0-30 Ohm.
5. Type ‘B’ choke (R=3 Ohms & Z=120 Ohm).
6. Track lead cable (2X2.5 sq. mm. copper).
7. Track lead J.B.
8. Track lead steel wire ropes.
9. Transverse bonds.
10. Block joints.
11. Track Relay (ACI).
3. Maintenance Instructions
• Note down the track relay voltage on each visit.
Specified value:
For shelf type relay <= 250% of pick-up voltage.
For plug-in-type relay <=300% of pick-up-voltage.
• Check the condition of following bonds on every
visit:
Cross bond, Transverse bond, Structure bond and
Longitudinal bond.
If found loose / broken missing, take remedial
action/inform OHE deptt.
• Clean the insulation joint with
a brush to remove iron
filing/powder.
• Check the point rodding,
stretcher and gauge tie plate
insulation, once in three months.
• Check the battery condition regularly. Measure the
voltage of each cell after switching off the charger.

4. Precautions
• Ensure that the ends of the nylon insulation joints
are square
and smooth.
• Check the
track relay
voltages just
before the onset of monsoon and at the end of the
monsoon for tuning up of track circuit within the
permissible limits for better performance.
