Introduction

"We learn by example and by direct experience because there are real limits to the
adequacy of verbal instruction." – Malcolm ladwell

Loco troubleshooting and quick remedial action is one of the prime objectives of loco pilots.

I on behalf of Mr P.K.JAIN CEE/BBS and Mr.KASINATH DRM/WAT take pride in producing and
presenting this “ELECTRIC LOCO TROUBLE SHOOTING TRAINER”. Designed and fabricated in-house
with most of released equipment from condemned loco as a process of recycle.

The objective of the project “ELECTRIC LOCO TROUBLE SHOOTING TRAINER “is primarily to give
practical training to loco pilots in troubleshooting loco defects experienced on line. Another objective
of the system is to educate loco pilots about the new technology equated in electric loco.
The loco troubleshooting trainer is used to train loco pilots in troubleshooting techniques
and thereafter take remedial actions.

This User Documentation is an overview of the features and operation techniques.

Considering all modifications and new technology equated in electric loco we have designed this loco trouble
shooting trainer. One of the salient feature of this “ELECTRIC LOCO TROUBLE SHOOTING TRAINER” it is
equipped with both conventional type (relay based) and Microprocessor(MPCS) equipment, and works in
either mode .Faults can be generated in both the modes, thus loco pilots can get practical training and
troubleshooting technics for both conventional and microprocessor equipped locos simultaneously.

Recently introduced Vigilance Control Device in electric loco has also been provided in this trainer for training
loco pilots about its features, operating system and isolating procedure.

Recent upgradation in pneumatic circuit in electric loco is “Triplet pneumatic panel”. “ELECTRIC LOCO
TROUBLE SHOOTING TRAINER” was also been provided with triplet pneumatic panel for training loco pilots its
operating system location of isolating coc etc..,

“ELECTRIC LOCO TROUBLESHOOTING TRAINER” has an Instructor Panel from where any fault in the loco sub-
system can be generated. It simulates the faulty symptoms and the trainee should identify the corrective action
by following a systematic process, thus experience gained will be helpful in future for taking corrective action
while working on train.
Hopping this “ELECTRIC LOCO TROUBLE SHOOTING TRAINER” is more worthwhile in
teaching better driving and troubleshooting technics for loco pilots and Asst loco pilots.

DEVIATION OF TM VOLTMETERS AND AMMETERS:

For deviation of TM voltmeters and Ammeter one dimmer stat of 230V, 2Amps rating was taken and its shaft
mechanically coupled to SMGR notching Wheel.

The regulated voltage is fed to 230/110V TFVT transformer and the transformer output is again stepped down
to milli- volts using 6V-0-6V transformer and is converted to DC.
This Mili-volts DC supply through PC-8 relays given to TM voltmeter and Ammeter and also to signal
conditioning unit of microprocessor.

Thus ammeters and voltmeters deviate as per the SMGR notch. If the notch increases the meters show higher
value and vice versa.

Note: Circuit diagram and cable index enclosed.

WORKING OF SPEEDOMETER:

For deviation of Speedometer, constant voltage tap from dimmer stat was taken and connected to a cab fan,
through a relay interlock which closes when LSGR extinguish. Cab fan blades were removed and speedometer
PG comb is fitted to rotor shaft. PG senor is fitted on body of cab fan and adjusted so that if the cab fan rotates
comb of PG rotates and the speedometer deviates. An additional condenser is kept in parallel to original
condenser using a time lag relay to achieve more starting torque with low voltage. An additional weight is
provided on shaft to achieve controlled speed.

Thus the speedometer starts deviating after taking notch.

4 O-31 LSB
5 O-32 LSP
6 O-33 LSRSI

SIGNAL CONDITIONING UNIT CIRCUIT: This circuit is designed for deviation of CAB meters as per SMGR notch.
And in MPCS circuit for measuring of TM volt and Ammeter.

One Dimmer stat is mechanically coupled with SMGR nothing wheel so that tapping of dimmer stat increases
with SMGR notch. This regulated AC supply is given to a 6-0-6 volts step down transformer and is converted to
DC using diodes and this Milli Volts is given to TM voltmeter and Ammeter.

The regulated milli volts supply is given through relay interlocks of QM1, QM2 QM5, and QM6. Circuited is
designed such that A2 ammeter deviates only when LC4 closes and ammeter deviates in opposite direction
when in RB mode. The same milli volts supply is given to signal conditioning unit of microprocessor. Similarly
when LC5 closes QM5 relay will energise and U5 meter will deviate and U6 meter deviates through QM6 relay.

QM1 and QM2 relays will energise when loco in RB and when C145 closes.

SIGNAL CONDITIONING UNIT 3: This circuit is designed for QCVAR, Q30 and input signal to MPCS. CCBA feed
through 003 cable and QDJ N/O interlock is given to CR relay. CR relay is a time lag relay and its interlocks close
after 3” after DJ closes. CCPT feed through 700 and through CR N/O interlock through INST Q30 switch is given
to Q30 relay. Relay Q30 internal coil is changed and DU coil is provided. Q30 relay will energise 3” after DJ
closes. Similarly QCVAR relay will energise after 3” of closing DJ and C118 de-energises.

Positive feed through QDJ interlock given to UA meter which indicates the OHE voltage. Same feed is given to
signal conditioning unit -3 as input signal of Auxiliary voltage. From battery charger through CHOS switch feed
is given to SCU-3 as analog input to measure charger voltage for microprocessor.

QOA CIRCUIT: In loco QOA relay drops whenever any earth fault occurs in Auxiliary circuit. Here to create fault
this circuit is modified. One toggle switch for each motor is provided and one end of toggle switch is connected
to particular motor EMC contact cable and second end of all toggle switches are looped and connected to QOA
relay through HQOA switch. Thus when a particular toggle switch switched ON, QOA relay energises and DJ
opens after trouble shooting and isolation of particular motor QOA will de-energise. QOA relay will be
bypassed when HQOA is kept on 0. Toggle switches are provided for MVSL1, MVSL2, MVSI1, MVSI2, MVMT1,
MVMT2, MVRH, MVRF, MPH, MCP1, and MCP2. When Toggle switch QOA MVMT2 put ON QOA relay energises
after closing DJ and when contact C106 closes. After trouble shooting and when HVMT2 kept on 0, QOA will
not drop.

QOP1 AND QOP2 CIRCUIT: Toggle switches QOP TM1, TM2, TM3 one end of switch connected to LC1, LC2,
LC3 NC4 valve coil cable and other end of switch are looped and through Q6 N/O interlock and HQOP switch
connected to QOP1 relay. When QOP TM1 switch closed then feed from LC1 coil will extend to QOP1 through
Q6 relay and QOP1 relay target drops. Thus trouble of QOP1 dropping is created. Same circuit is followed for
QOP2 for TM4, TM5, and TM6.

Note: Relay QOP1 or QOP2 will act only after 6th notch of SMGR.

ACP CIRCUIT: For conventional loco ACP circuit is connected as per Modification sheet no
B/TRS/RB/MOD/2000-2001/001. For MPCS mode ACP circuit not kept in service. I-76 and I-78 are shorted
Positive supply given. Toggle switch HPAR provided nearby HLS switch. Positive feed through HPAR switch is
given to I-70 of MPCS. When HPAR switched ON auto regression will be supressed.

CONTACTS FOR MVSI MVSL: In loco MVSI, MVSL motors are not provided with EMC contacts, but create a
fault of these motors not working EMC contacts are provided and are controlled through toggle switch
provided on instructor panel and for MPH QMPH relay provided. When toggle switch on instructor panel
switched OFF, these motors will not rotate causing tripping as per sequence. C111 and C222 are contacts for
CP’s provided outside Model room to maintain pressure continuously. These contacts are controlled by RGCP
governor provided near MR2 reservoir. C333 and C444 are contacts provided in 3 φ 415V AC supply. Both these
contacts are connected parallel, these contacts closes only after DJ closes and 3 φ AC supply will extend to the
Motors, TFVT, Battery Charger and Dimmer stat. thus 3 φ AC supply will extend to loco only after closing DJ.

QLM QRSI1 QRSI2: In loco these relays energise when over current flows. Here to create a fault through these
relays some modifications are done. The coil inside the relay is replaced with DU type coil. Battery positive feed
through QDJ relay is given to Toggle switches INST QLM, INST QRSI1, INST QRSI2 and directly connected to
concern relays. When any of these switches switched ON, concern relay energises and DJ trips.

QDJ RELAY: This relay energises when DJ closed and its N/O interlocks are used in different circuit.

Q6 RELAY: this relay energises when SMGR in between 6 to 32 notch. Its interlocks are used in EVPHGR circuit
QOP1 and QOP2 circuit.

Page-14
Preparation to do before energising:
1. Put the HBA switch OFF. See that all contacts in EMC panel provided outside the loco are in open
condition.
2. Put the Change-Over Switch (CHOS) handle
to require position i.e. put it to top side for
conventional loco operation and bottom side
for MPCS loco operation. Check that all contacts
are closed properly as per sequence.

3. For conventional loco operation remove MPCS CCPT fuse and put all
other fuses intact. For MPCS loco operation put MPCS CCPT fuse and
remove CCA, CCPT, CCLSA, CCDJ, CCLS fuses.

4. Put the Mains Supply Switch to ON position.


5. Put all the Circuit Breakers provided in EMC panel and also in TK panel to ON position.

6. Put HBA switch to ON.


7. Contacts MVSL1, MVSL2, MVSI1 and MVSI2 will be closed.
8. Switch ON Toggle Switch for CP’s provided in EMC panel. CP’s will start and pressure will start building up.
9. Further continue the operation as a normal loco.

NOTE: For power saving switch OFF circuit breakers of MVMT1, MVMT2, MVRH, MVSL1 and MVSL2.
These motors will not work but all other operations will be normal.

Normal Working and Trouble Creation in conventional loco mode:


Normal working: See that CHOS switch is in UPWARD direction and MPCS CCPT removed condition. See that
RS and MR pressure are above 6Kg/cm2.

1. Put ZPT to position-1.


2. Close BLDJ and press BLRDJ/BP2DJ.
3. Q45 energises and through its N/O interlock Q44 energises. Through N/O interlock of Q44 on VCB coil
branch C118 energises and through its N/O interlock and through all safety relays N/C interlocks feed
extends to VCB coil and VCB closes.
4. Once VCB Closed through its N/O interlock relay QDJ energises. Through N/O interlock of QDJ positive
feed extends to CR relay (time-lag relay) and CR relay energises but its N/O interlock closes after 3”.
Through N/O interlock of CR relay Q30 and QCVAR relay energises. After energising of QCVAR C118
gets de-energised.
5. When the relay QDJ closes through its N/O interlock EMC contacts C333 and C444 closes and 415V AC
supply extends to CHBA and QV61 relay energises and LSCHBA extinguishes.
6. Release BLRDJ/BP2DJ after extinguishing of LSCHBA. After realising of BLRDJ/BP2DJ Q45 de-energises
and feed to Q44 will be maintained through Q30 N/O interlock.
7. When Q44 gets energised feed to Q118 is maintained through QVSL1, QVSL2 and QMPH. Here QVSL1
and QVSL2 cables are shorted to make the system work normal even when motors circuit-breakers
were switched off (for power saving). Relay QMPH (sequential type) provided in place of QPH as no oil
is present in transformer.
8. Once VCB closed blower motors MVSL1, MVSL2, MVSI1, and MVSI2 will start rotating.
9. Switch ON BLCP/BLCPD CP contacts C101 and C102 will close and after 5” contact C103 closes.
Note: Only one defective CP is provided inside trainer which will not work and it is provided only to
show the trainee location of CP. CP provided outside the room will work and builds up pressure.
