FOREWORD
I am glad that the Trouble Shooting Directory for Electric
Locomotive has been revised and is ready for issue, There is a need for
revising the Directory from time to time to take stock of continuous
improvements taking place to incorporate the advancements in
technology and innovations. The revised Directory incorporates new
features viz., trouble shooting techniques of SIV and Micro processor
controlled Locos.
I would be happy if our Loco pilots. Assistant Loco pilots and
Supervisors who will be using this Directory, give their valuable
feedback on any oversight, any features that ought to have been
included, apart from their suggestions, which may improve the
presentation and usefulness of the Directory further:
I take this opportunity to wish each and every Loco pilot a SAFE
AND TROUBLE FREE RUNNING in their day to day operation of
Train service

MESSAGE
Lam very happy to note that ZETTC / AVD is bringing out an updated version of
the “Operating Manual and Trouble Shooting Directory” with detailed trouble shooting
instructions of Static Inverter and Micro Processor fitted locos with the operating
instructions. This will be very useful to the Loco Running staffand Supervisors.
The concerted and coordinated efforts put in by St DEEs of Electric Loco sheds
and Operations and their team helped in successfully releasing this issue in a short time.
also appreciate and acknowledge the overwhelming dedication and hard work
putin by the entire Faculty of ZETTC/AVD.
I sincerely believe that the running staff and supervisors will derive maximum
advantage out of this “Operating Manual and Trouble Shooting Directory” to reduce
down time in trouble shooting enroute.

PREFACE
Trouble Shooting Directory and operating instructions for Electric
Locomotive was first issued in the year 1990 and was revised in the year
2001 to incorporate the requirements for the new Locos. The latest
technological advancement and introduction of SIV and Micro processor
controlled Locos, necessitated to updating the TSD again for easy understanding and
trouble shooting by the running and maintenance staff.
The faculty members of ZETTC have put in a lot of efforts to update
and incorporate the developments and brought out this New Edition of
"Operating Manual and Trouble Shooting Directory". We acknowledge their
effort and commitment towards improvement of the training centre.
‘We look forward for suggestions from users for continual improvement as part of
the ISO 9001: 2000 requirements.
We sincerely hope that the running staff and maintenance staff will make the best
use ofthe end product of the effort put in by all of us.

fully
8, Inform the unusual occurrence to TLC through the telephone tap (emergency telephone) or
from next station or at next stop.
9. To minimize the time, pass on the message to TLC through a memo in duplicate, through the
station master and obtain acknowledgement,
10, When stopped in enroute by LP of train in opposite direction either for issuing any
message of for seeking advice for trouble shooting, occupy minimum time, give necessary
instructions and should start the train within § minutes.
11. Whenever the train is detained or likely to be detained in section for more than 18 minutes,
give information to TPCITLC through emergency telephone tap, or from a flag station or
through the adjacent line train Driver and also arrange to protect the train as per G & SR 6.03.
12. Before removing and replacing the fuse HBA should be placed in ‘OFF’ position and before
replacing a fuse it should be checked that itis in good condition.
18. In case of manual operation of a relay, operate the relay gently with the help of wooden stick.
(On run if vacuum/BP pressure drops suddenly or if any lurchijerk is experienced or DJ tripping
with drop in vacuum / BP pressure, suspect some abnormality on the train. Immediately
switch on the flasher, stop the train, check the formation and appraise the Guard by giving two
short and one long whistle and protect the train if necessary.12.

for vertical DBR 850 Amps and
for roof mounted DBR 850 amps up to 15 notches.Operating Manual and Trouble Shoting Directory for Electric Locomotive
©. QUICK ACCELERATION:
1
‘After the train has started, progress the notches gradually without exceeding the current
limits.
Use sanders when required.
‘After applying the maximum voltage 865 V, if the acceleration of the train is still required, use
shunting contactors if provided,
For double-headed train the maximum current limit shall be 750 amps for WAP1/WAPS
locomotives
D. SPEED CONTROL BY FIELD WEAKENING:
MPS can be used upto and above 20 notches (after giving maximum voltage) when the speed
and current rating have not reached the maximum.
Take one field weakening notch and observe ammeters and speedometer. Ammeter needle
will shoot up and gradually come down and speed will increase.
If the speed is to be increased further, progress the shunting notches duly observing the
ammeters for stabilizing and watching speedometer.
While releasing MPS, first regress 2 or 3 traction notches by holding MPS and then release
field weakening notches to ‘0 step by step.
E. BALANCING SPEED:
After the train has reached the required speed, MP and MPS (if provided) should be adjusted to
‘maintain the speed constant,
F. OBSERVATION ON RUN:
In addition to road and signals, the Loco Pilot should observe the following while on run.
1
Observe vacuum, MR gauge, and BC gauge, BP gauge, FP gauge, and airflow indicator,
speedometer, ammeter and voltmeter needles,
Test the brake power of the train/LE at the first available opportunity/ within the block section
here ever the load composition /crew changed
For attacking an up gradient loco pilot shall attain sufficiently high speed at the foot of the
gradient to enable to negotiate the full length of the gradient
Keep a good watch on OHE and lower the pantograph immediately whenever there is any
abnormality noticed in OHE and also observe the adjacent line OHE.
G. COASTING:
Whenever there is any lengthy down gradient or before scheduled and unscheduled stops, MP.
should be placed on '0' and allow the train to coast for the maximum distance possible.
Coasting can help to save considerable amount of electrical energy. Coaching or goods trains can
coast to a distance of 3 kms after power is shut off at maximum speed (100 or 75 Kmph). Loco Pilot
should use his discretion and take up the full advantage of coasting without affecting the
punctuality,
roy12
H. BRAKING: GENERAL:
Bring MP to'0' and ensure GR on
Press PVEF pedal judiciously.
Destroy minimum amount of vacuum/BP pressure by A9 and keep the handle in application
position til the train speed is controlled
Place Ag handle on release position, whenever the speed is contralled and decelerating,
Repeat this application til such time the train speed is well controlled,
Just before stopping when the train speed is 5 kmph, release PVEF, so that the loco brake
‘can be applied partially.
7. Apply brake in such a way that the train is stopped with raising vacuun/BP and loco brake is
in partially applied condition. This will avoid jerk on the train when stopping,
NOTE:
1. If the Loco Pilot experiences poor brake power, he should destroy more vacuum and
press PVEF and if necessary he should place A9 on emergency position,
2. In air brake train: For applying the formation brake, Loco Pilot operates A9 valve handle
to application position in the loco and reduces the BP pressure in four graduated steps as
given below.
2) Minimum reduction. in this position 0.5kg/om* B.P pressure is reduced
») In full service application 1.5 kg/cm* BP pressure is reduced
©) In over reduction position the BP pressure is reduced to 2.6 kglom*
4) For emergency application brake pipe pressure is reduced to zero so that the train will
stop within minimum possible distance.
) The maximum pressure that can be built up in the brake cylinder is 3.8 kg/om? to
obtain Max. braking force in wagons.
‘STOPPING OF THE TRAIN:
ON LEVEL TRACK:
1. When the train (passengerifreight) is to be brought to a stop on level track, frst apply brakes
with a small reduction of vacuumbrake pipe pressure in the train pipe by auto brake valve
(A-9).This will allow the rear portion to run smoothly.
2. A heavier reduction of vacuumv/orake pipe pressure may then be made In order to make the
final stop very smooth, the brake application should be gradually reduced by recreation of
‘vacuumvinereasing the brake pipe pressure as the train is about to come to stop,
3. The loco independent brakes should be applied gradually when the speed has come down to
5 kmph. This would help in bunching of the train and would help in easier start
‘ON DOWN GRADIENT
1. Destroy vacuumibrake pipe pressure partially on trains (passengerifreight) by automatic
brake valve except in case of emergency stop.
2. The application of vacuum/air brake being increased til the speed comes down.Operating Manual and Trouble Shoting Directory for Electric Locomotive
3. When speed comes down, if proportionate brakes are in operation, the train shall be brought
to stop with train and loce air brakes on.
4, Heavy application should never be made, or the rear portion is liable to run in violently and
damage to rolling stock may occur.
5. Similarly quick release will cause front portion to run out resulting in service jolts,
‘ON UP GRADIENT
Control the train with minimum application of vacuum/BP pressure.
2. Apply sand to few meters before stopping the train.
3. When the train (Passenger/Goods) is brought to stop, the brake should be kept applied by
the AS, til the train actually stops.
4, Aller stopping of train keep brakes on locomotive and train applied by SAS and A9 brake
valve. It will prevent rolling back of train on gradients. Do not leave the train with only SAQ in
applied condition,
ACTION TO BE TAKEN AFTER STOPPING A TRAIN:
1. The blowers for traction motors and transformer should continue to run for 10 minutes
‘especially after long runs with heavy trains to cool the motors.
2. The place and duration of stop permitting; the Loco Pilot or Assistant Loco Pilot shall check
the following
a) Axle box, traction motor and gear box bearing temperature (by feeling). In case the
running staff observes abnormal temperature, he will report the matter to TLC for
suitable action. TLC will arrange its checking through maintenance staff at the
appropriate point
b) Working of all blowers.
©) Oillevel of main transformer and tap changer whenever possible.
4) The air reservoirs shall also be drained off to expel accumulated water.
RHEOSTATIC BRAKE
‘On WAGSI7 & WAP 4 Some locos, an additional electrical braking called Rheostatic brake is
provided, to control the goods trains on long falling gradients with heavy loads.
Whenever RSI-1 or RSI-2 or any one of the traction motor is isolated, Rheostatic braking should
not be used.
INSTRUCTIONS FOR WORKING DURING RHEOSTATIC BRAKING:
When MP is brought to P, LSB will glow and extinguish and the following sequence of operations
are ensured. To allow for electrical current delay and to prevent a surge of dynamic braking,
follow these dynamic braking rules
1. Pause for few seconds before changing from power to dynamic braking
2. Ensure LSDBR extinguishes on or before Sth notch. If LSDBR doesnot extinguish on Sth notch
do not use RB.3. When operating over a railroad crossing at grade (diamond):
a) Reduce the dynamic braking level before the train reaches the crossing
) Wait until the entice locomotive passes over the crossing before increasing the dynamic
braking level
4. To stop while operating at speeds below 15 Kmph, apply the conjunction brakes as
necessary to prevent slack run out.
NOTE:
4} For WAP4 and WAG7, RB equipments are provided in RSI-2 circuit.
+ The maximum current for theostatic braking for Vertical DBR is 850 Amps.
4 Incase of Roof mounted RB The max current is 850Amps up to 15 notches
STARTING OF TRAIN AFTER STOPPING:
Move the brake valve handle (A9) to release position.
2. Wait for 3 minutes in case of single pipe and 1% minute in case of twin pipe brake system to
release the brakes. Earlier starting, if train brakes have not been released fully, may result in
‘excess force on coupling and brake binding
3. Ensure that air flow indicator white needle coincide with fixed red needle and light and buzzer
is not giving indication.
4. Wait for 4 minutes in case of vacuum braked passenger and 6-7 minutes in case of vacuum
braked freight train to release the brakes.
‘STARTING THE TRAIN ON UPGRADIENT.
1. While restarting, move A9 handle to release position and wait for 3 minutes in case of single
pipe and 1% minutes in case of twin pipe air braked train for the releasing of brakes.
2. Wait for 4 minutes in case of vacuum braked passenger train and 6 to 7 minutes in case of
‘vacuum braked goods train for releasing of brakes,
3. Ensure full vacuum/BP pressure is recreated, press BPQWC, press sander pedal (PSA) and
take two to three traction notches and release SAQ,
4. Progress the traction notches without exceeding the starting current rating and apply sand to
avoid slipping.
‘After starting the train, accelerate the train beyond stalling speed.
6. Ifthe train is not moved even after applying full starting current within 10 to 15 seconds, apply
SA9, bring MP to ‘0’, recreate full vacuunv/BP pressure and check for any brake binding. If

book.1 MU OPERATION OF WAGS5 & WAG7 LOCOS
14.4. General:
Whenever more than one loco are coupled together and locos are worked by a single crew, then it is
‘known as MU operation,
41. The front driving loco is known as ‘leading loco’ and rear loco is known as ‘Trailing loco’
2. In MU operations 3 electrical jumpers ( B C D ) are connected between locos to operate
Control circuits of trailing loco in synchronizing with leading loco.
3. During MU operation control circuits of traling locos are operated from leading loco except
Q118, 244 & Q100. For closing DJ, HBA should be on 1 in both the locos
4, BLSN switch is provided on the BL box, which controls the feed to VEPT and MTD\ of traling
loco from leading loco. Its normal position is UP, on switching it ‘DOWN’ the supply to MTDJ
and VEPT gets cut off and thus DJ of Trailing loco gets tripped and panto also lowers,
5. Closing of DJ can be done for both the locos together or separately. Similarly opening of DJ
‘can be done for both the locos together or of the rear loco only.
6. Traling loco DJ can be closed from the trailing loco by pressing BP2DJ, but cannot be
opened by BP1DJ. In case of emergency the DJ of tralling loco can be opened by removing
its CCPT fuse.
7. Opening of DJ for leading loco alone not possible,
8. For disconnecting B C D jumpers, de energize both locos and switch off both locos HBA.
14.2. Definitions
LSGRPT:
The RED lamp provided in the ceiling of both driving cabs, this lamp indicates the existence of a
defect on the loco in which it glows. LSGRPT glows along with defective indication (LSDJ,
LSCHBA, LSB & LSRSI)
NOTE:
4. When MPJ is brought to '0', LSGRPT will glow.
2. When trouble shooting in MU locos do not bring MPJ to 0.
3, LSGRPT glows in defective loco to indicate that the particular is defective.
LSOL:
The orange lamp provided on the driving desk of both cabs, the lamp will glow on the loco indicating
the defect is in other loco. LSOL glows along with defective indication (LSDJ, LSCHBA, LSB&
ESR)
Nor
1, LSOL glows in good loco only.
QVLSOL:
Relay for recapitulation lamp. When there is any abnormality in Leading (Trailing locos, this relay will
pick up and make the lamp LSOL to glow in the good loco.
15949:
This relay is called as synchronizing device relay, which synchronizes the tap changer operation in
both leading and trailing during running and braking of multiple operation.
BLSN 1/2 - neutral section switch:
This BLSN switch enables the Loco Pilot to open DJ and lower pantograph of the trailing loco from
leading loco.
While passing through neutral section first put BLSN Down to open DJ, lower panto of
Trailing loco and observe the glowing of lamp LSDJ, then switch OFF BLDJ to open DJ of leading
loco.
Normal position of BLSN during MU operation is Upwards, At Neutral Sections
BLSN to be put down ward position for rear loco DJ to trip and panto to lower.
2. Use two compressors on leading loco and one on cach trailing loco for air braked
stock with the normal load under normal condition.
9 instruction for loco pilot during MU operat
Do not wedge any EM contactor or relay (Except Q 100 and QRS) in trailing loco. If
necessary make the trailing loco dead.
If HOBA of one loco is to be kept on OFF position due to fuse melting then HOBA of the other
loco should also be kept on OFF position otherwise fuse will continue to melt
Whenever it is necessary to work with EEC then keep ZSMS on ‘0! for both the locos (In
modified locos, if ZSMS of leading loco is kept on 0’ both locos will work on EEC).
Whenever H@CVAR is kept on 0" in leading loco then never close DJ separately of any loco.
Close DJ of both the locos together.
NOTE:
In modified ZSMS locos no need to change ZSMS for EEC operation in MU locos

15.1. Procedure to identify the defective loco:
41. While working in MU operation when Du trips in leading or traling loco or a fault occurs, it can
be indicated by LSGRPT lamp provided on cab celling and LSOL on the loco pilot desk as
follows.
In defective loco, LSGRPT glows and LSOL remains extinguished
In healthy loco - LSGRPT remains extinguished and LSOL glows.
4. The concem pilot lamp indicating the fault will also glow in both the locos along with the
glowing of LSGRPT or LSOL. Until the fault is rectifed the pilot lamp will continue to glow in
both the locos.
5. If LSGRPT is glowing in the leading loco then leading loco is defective and if LSOL
glowing in leading loco it means that defect is in trailing loco. LSGRPT or LSOL glows
along with defective indications.
6. LSGRPT/LSOL glows for the following defects in the loco.
a) When Ds trips,
b) CHBA defective,

Instructions to the leading and trailing loco Loco pilots.
Except in an emergency, the leading Loco pilot only will apply the brakes.
Under no circumstances, may the trailing loco, Loco pilot release the brakes on his loco or the
train or apply the brakes independentiy on his loco.
‘When starting, power may be applied by both locos as required. The leading loco Loco pilot
‘who is in charge of the train will notch up untl the train moves. The rear loco Loco pilot will
assist as required.
‘While running, power may be applied as often as necessary by the rear loco, loco pilot
irrespective of the position in which the graduator of the leading loco is provided. Power may
however be applied only gradually by the rear loco, Loco pilot.
The rear loco Loco pilot may switch off the power using his discretion and with due regard to
locaity gradient etc. The rear loco Loco pilot must frequently observe his 8Pivacuum gauge
and be prepared to shut OFF power (i itis being applied at that time) should the needle make
any movement back.
It is the duty of the rear loco Loco pilot to acquaint himself with the contents of all caution
orders and special instruction ete issued to the leading loco Loco pilot while startingiworking
the train,
‘At neutral section, the leading loco, Loco pilot will follow the instructions given in TSD for
single loco operation, the trailing loco, Loco pilot will tip DJ and lower panto of the trailing
loco at 250m board and raise panto and close Di after passing neutral section1 BANKER OPERATION
(On gradient sections, sometimes banking locos are used in the rear of the train to assist the
leading loco/locos to negotiate the gradient. The banking locomotive must be coupled to the
train,
41. The vacuum hose/air brake pipes of the banking loco should be coupled to the last vehicle,
but on no account should the exhauster of the banking loco be run.
2. Inthe event of banking air braked trains; MUZB valve of banking loco shall be kept in. Trail
position and L&T COC should be in closed position.
3. The Loco Pilot of the banking loco will keep @ watch on the vacuum/BP gauge and take
necessary action to assist the leading Loco Pilot when brakes are applied.
4. All rules in regard to switching OFF power at neutral section, lowering of pantograph in the
‘event of emergency feeding etc. shall be observed. The Loco Pilot of the rear locomative will
be signalled by the Loco Pilot in the leading locomotive to carry out these operations, as
required, by means of code whistles / walkie - talkie.
5. When working a train in an up gradient with the assistance of an electric banking loco, the
following procedure should be followed,
a) When the signal is lowered the leading Loco Plat wll give the prescribed code whistle,
The banking Loco Pilot will acknowledge the whistle and notch up quickly so as to
obtain the maximum permissible starting current, simultaneously releasing the loco
brakes,
b) The sanders should be used to avoid wheel slipping simultaneously and using the
sanders as required.
(©) The leading Loco Pilot should take 2 to 3 notches, releasing the loco brakes. The
leading and banking Loco Pilot should keep a watch on their respective ammeters and
maintain the current at the continuous rating,
4) If a “stop” signal is encountered in the gradient section by the leading Loco Pilot, he
should switch OFF the Master controller and bring the train to a stop applying the
brakes to the extent required. He will also use code whistle for the banking Loco Pilat.
This will increase current in the banking loco. The banking loco Loco Plot should
regress the Master controller so as to maintain the current at the continuous rated
value till the train stops. On stopping, both the leading and banking Loco Pilots should
apply independent air brakes to avoid rolling down.
e) When re-starting after @ stop signal, the same procedure as in a), b) and c) should be
followed,
4) At the point where the rising gradient ends, the Banking Loco Pilot should switch ‘OFF’
the Master controller and stop pushing,18. GUIDE LINES TO RUNNING STAFF FOR OPERATION OF

Leakage test on train:
41. Couple up BP hose of the loco to the BP hose of the load and FP hose of the loco to FP hose
of the load in case of twin pipe working.
2. Charge the train with 5 £0.1 kglom? BP pressure, ensure 5 + 0.1 kgiom? on loco and 4.8
kglom? in brake van (4.7 kg/em? on longer trains).
3, Drop 1 kg pressure by operating AQ valve handle and wait til hissing sound stops and brake
pipe pressure stabilises at 4 kg/cm’.
Close the Lead/Trall cock for BP charging and wait for 60 seconds:
AA drop of 0.25 kg/cm? per minute (0.3 kg/cm on the longer trains) is permissible.
Excess leak noticed on the BP system of the train should be attended to and rectified.
Recharge the BP pressure to 5 « 0.1 Kglem®.
18.4. Brake continuity test :
‘The Loco Pilot and Guard must carry out this brake continuity test as soon as possible after the
locomotive is attached on train and BP pressure is ereated fo 5 £ 0.1 Kg/emt. This test is to be also
done whenever any vehicle is detached or attached to the train or clearing a stabled load from way
side stations.
4. The Loco Pilot should reduce BP pressure to 4 kg/cm* on the locomotive and close ‘L & T’
cock.
2. The Guard must then open the Guard's emergency valve until all air is exhausted. The valve
must then be closed,
3. If brake van is not the rear vehicle, open the brake pipe angle cock on the rear most vehicle
nti all airis exhausted. The cock must then be closed,
4, The Loco Pilot must observe that the BP pressure is dropped to ‘0’ on the locomotive gauge
and does not commence to rise again. Ifthe BP pressure does not fall, this can be due to BP
angle cock closed between vehicles,
5, The Loco Pilot must move the A9 handle to ‘release’ position, open ‘L & T’ cock and
recreate 5 kg/cm? of BP pressure.
6. The guard must not give the signal to start the train until he has carried out his duties as,
above and finally there is 4.7 or 4.8 kglom? pressure in the brake van,
7. The Loco Pilot must not start the train unless, he has observed the fall of the pressure to ‘0°
and that it has remained at 0’ until he had moved the Ag valve to ‘release’ position. He must
then observe the subsequent rise of pressure to 5 kglcm* on the locomotive gauge.
8, In case of change of traction, the train brakes must be manually released to avoid brake
binding and train parting while starting or on run,
Before stat

41. A train should not be started until brakes of the entire train including hand brakes are fully
released.
2. At the originating point of train, C&W staff should ensure this. At wayside stations, for the
clearing of stabled loads it should be ensured by Loco Pilot, Guard and Station Staff.
3, If the train is started with the brakes released partially, whee! skidding or breakage of coupling
may take place,

4. Emplylload handle should be set in the correct position (ie.) when the wagon is empty, the
handle should be set in ‘empty’ position and for loaded wagons in ‘load position’
‘5. Ifthe empty load handle is not set in the correct position, a serious accident can take place
a jn the loaded condition the train will have inadequate brake power. On the other hand
‘when it is empty severe application of brake wil skid the wheels and cause irepairable damage.
6. The train examiner will be responsible for the correct setting of the empty/load handle at all
originated stations and wayside stations where the trains are passed by them. At way side
station where any shunting is done or when a stabled train is picked up, it should be ensured
by the Guard that the above handle is set in correct position in all the wagons.
7. The Loco Pilot will personally check the position of all angle cocks of all air hoses of the
leading and traling locomotives and of the first Box-N/BCN wagon of the load.

2. After over reduction 3 to4 mts,
3. After an emergency application 5 to 7 mts. preferably the later limit
8. MR pressure should not be allowed to fall below 8 kg/cm? to achieve optimum advantage of
charging brake pipe. In case MR pressure drops below 7 kglem®, stop the train and
investigate the cause and rectify the fault.
9. In case a heavy leakage or mal-functioning of the distributor valve or any brake binding is
noticed, the release of the wagon brake should be ensured by pulling the quick release valve
‘of the distributor valve. In case the brake binding prablom is repeated or brakes not releasing
at the first instant, the distributor valve of the concerned wagon should be isolated by
‘changing the position of isolation cock handle to ‘OFF’ position, and quick release valve of
istributor valve operated til the brake fully released
10, In case of disconnection of air hose in enroute, apply A9 emergency and close the lead/trail
‘cock for BP on the loco. Then the attention should be given by closing the angle cocks of the
defective wagon and if necessary replacement of damaged hoses may be done by removing
the air hose either at the front of loco or rear of the brake van. If unsuccessful, request for
TXR assistance,
11, Loco Pilot should report all problems and unusual events noticed by him on run in respect of
functioning of air brakes and wagon movement etc, immediately to CHCICTLC. The
procedure to be adopted in such cases shall be reported through a “Memo! jointly signed by
both Loco Pilot and Guard
12, Under no circumstance the angle cocks of the wagon should be closed except for the
attention period and after the attention the concerned angle cocks must be opened before any
movernent is made.
NOTE:
‘After closing angle cocks of the loco/wagons, an interval of about 0.5 minute should be given,
so as to allow the trapped air in the air hose to leak out through the exhaust and then only the
air hoses should be uncoupled.18.

Operating Manual and Trouble Shoting Directory for Electric Locomotive
The Loco Pilot should see that the brake pipe and feed pipe connection are not mixed up
either between the locomotives or between the locomotive and the first wagon of the load.
The Loco Pilot shall ensure that BP gauge is showing 5 + 0.1 kglom* and FP gauge is
showing 6 kgicm?. Then after ensuring the continuity of the air pressure, through the Guard of
the train and in his absence, through the attending TXR, Loco Pilot shall sign the brake power
certificate presented by the TXR. The brake van or last vehicle pressure should not be less
than 4.8 kglome for a load of 56 BOX-N/BCN and 4.7 kglem? for the load of beyond 56 BOX-
NIBCN wagons. At wayside stations while picking up stabled load, it should be ensured by both
Loco Pilot and Guard of the train.
Isolating cock on distributor valve and angle cocks of BP and FP of all wagons should be in
‘open position which should be ensured by C & W staff at the originating point and at wayside
stations while picking up a stabled load, by Loco Pilot and Guard of the train
While on run
‘As far as possible, the train should be controlled by service application of brakes (0.2 to 0.8
Kglem®) and in exceptional cases where the train brake power Is inadequate, the BP pressure
may be reduced upto 1.5 or 1.6 kg/cm?. Over reduction of BP pressure to 2.5 kg/cm? or
emergency brakes should be used only in genuine cases. Because heavy braking force will
result in skidding, excessive wear of wheels and train parting
Faulty braking can cause skidding of wagon wheels. To avoid skidding, the braking and
starting has to be smooth. If the train is running heavy, the Driver should stop immediately
and investigate the cause. Any delay in investigation may cause skidding of wagon wheels or
other damages like breakage of CBC parts, etc,
CBC of loco and BOX-N/BCN can break due to high coupler force, which can arise either
‘while starting or stopping or accelerating. To avoid breakage of couplers, the instructions laid
down below should be rigidly followed after application of brakes.
While stopping a train
Stopping a train should be smooth (without jerks) which is to be done by releasing the brakes
just before final stop. It should be ensured that handle of AS (DAB) Is put to released position,
when the speed is about 3 to 5 kmph prior to stopping,
‘When stopping at a station on the falling gradient, the rheostatic brake is to be kept in ‘ON’
position and should only be cut off after an application of A-9 (DAB).
In case of stopping a train on a rising gradient, the GR should be maintained on atleast 2
notches and only after application of loco brakes, the GR should be brought to ‘0:
Loco Pilot and Assistant Loco Pilot should release the condensate from main reservoirs by
‘opening the drain cocks as frequently as possible to prevent moisture entering in the loco
pneumatic system as well as in the alr brake system of BOX-N/BCN wagons.
Before uncoupling the locomotive from the rake make an emergency application and wait tl
BBP pressure reduced to 0". Thereafter close the angle cock of the brake pipe on the loco and

ing up on air brake train:
Close the BP angle cock of the loco between the loco and first vehicle of the train. Ensure BP.
prassure is 5.0 kg/cm and the MR pressure is above 9.0 kglom? on the loco. In case if the
Pressure is less on the loco, attend the same.
Ensure adequate number of CPs are kept in service according to the number of boxes of the
train:
If the loca is in good condition, check the train for any leakage of the pipe lines and at the
angle cocks and arrest the same if necessary,
Check for any BP air hose washers are missing. f missing, replace the same.
Ensure in front of the loco BP angle cock is closed and there is no air leakage. Similarly
‘ensure BP angle cock in rear of the brake van is closed and there is no air leakage.
In case of air leakage is noticed on any distributor valve try to arrest the leakage. If not
Possible to arrest the leakage, isolate that particular distributor valve and release the brakes
of that vehicle.
IF loco air flow indicator pointer is shooting up above the previous level maintained, arrest the
leakage tlt drops to the previous level.
Brake pipe pressure dropping on run:
Ensure A9 and RS are in proper position in both cabs.
Check and ensure that all the angle cocks of the train are opened fully and there is no
leakage at the angle cocks and palm ends (missing rubber washers).
Ensure BP angle cock in front of the loco and rear of the brake van or last vehicle is closed
properly,
Check and rectify the leakage of BP pipes if any.
In case of coaching train, check for any Alarm chain pull is operated. Ifso, reset the same.
Ensure that there is no leakage at Guard's brake valve.
In case of any leakage noticed at the distributor valve and ifit could not be arrested, close the
isolation cock of the distributor valve and release the brakes of that vehicle,
FP pressure dropping on run:
Ensure that the FP feed valve COC is opened fully on the loco.
Ensure that FP angle cock in front of the loco and in the rear of the brake van or last vehicle
of the trains closed
Check and ensure all the FP angle cocks on the train are opened fully and there is no leakage:
at the angle cocks and palm ends.
Check and rectify the leakage on the FP pipe line if any.
Itthe leakage on FP pipe line could not be arrested or could not be traced or any FP hose is
damaged, work onwards with single pipe system duly closing FP angle cocks of the loco and
first vehicie of the formation
IslFor isolating C3W distributor valve, move the isolating handle
upwards as shown in the photograph. Then pull the releasing han
Uill the brakes are released.
Brakes are binding on a single vehicle:
1. If brake cylinder piston has come out, close the C3W distributor valve isolating cock and then
pull the releasing handle,
2. If brakes are released, normalise the isolation cock and resume traction.
3. If the brakes are getting applied again, close the isolation cock, release the brakes and
resume traction (in twin pipe working, close the auxiliary reservoir cock also).
4, In case of coaching trains, close the brake cylinder COC whichever is getting applied. If both
the brake cylinder piston gets applied, close the C3W distributor valve isolation cock, release
brakes, close auxiliary reservoir cock and work onwards.
19.5. Mechanical jamming of brakes:
4. Check and ensure that the hand brake is released fully
2. If the brake cylinder piston is inside the cylinder and the brakes are binding or brake cylinder
piston is jammed, operate the slack adjuster. Ifthe brakes are released, resume traction,
3. If unsuccessful or the slack adjuster could not be operated or brake rigging is jammed,
request for assistance of TXR.
182Operating Manual and Trouble Shoting Directory for Electric Locomotive
19.6. BP iron pipe is broken of a vehicle:
4. Since MR pressure gets discharged through BP pipe line, keep AQ handle in ‘emergency’
position,
2. Check the train and close the rear BP angle cock of the vehicle before the defective vehicle.
3, Release the brakes of the remaining vehicle upto the brake van or last vehicle including the
defective vehicle.
4, Inform the Guard and exchange signals with the Guard frequently and clear the section with
necessary precautions, f the section is favorable.
5. Alter clearing the section inform CHCICTLC and detach the defective vehicle,
6. If the section is not favorable to work with partial brake system, clear the block section in two
portions duly taking the defective vehicle in the first portion as per procedure.
19.7. BP air hose is damaged:
4. Keep A8 in ‘emergency’ position.
2. Close the BP angle cock before the air hose damaged.
3. Renew the air hose, if spare hose is available or with the hose in the rear of the last vehicle or
‘with the hose in front of the loco and resume traction duly opening the closed angle cock.
4, If no spare hose is available or could not be replaced, close the BP angle cock of the vehicle
before the defective air hose and act as per the procedure.
19.
BP angle cock towards loco end in between the vehicles is closed at a
way-side station:
(The BP pressure of the loco will not drop and air flow indicator white needle will go below red
needle).
4, When a Loco Pilot tries to start a train he will experience hard pulling due to train brakes
being applied in rear of the vehicle where the angle cock is closed
2. Check the train and open the angle cock, which is closed and ensure continuity of BP
pressure and last vehicle before starting the train.
19.9. ACP pulled on the air brake train:
(Air flow indicator shoots up suddenly. If ACP circuit is available and is in service, buzzer sounds with
LSPAR lamp glowing in the cab)
At times the train brakes also get applied slightly. Isolate the Buzzer by pressing BIS switch on
the loco, Stop the train immediately at a convenient place. Apply SAQ and depute the Assistant Loco Pilot
to check the train. Simultaneously Guard of the train also should come from the brake van. If phone
faclity is available on the train, Loco Pilot should inform the Guard and the train Superintendent to
check the ACP along with the C& W staff available on the train for this purpose. After identifying the
ACP pulled Bogie, reason to be ascertained by the Guard or train Superintendent for pulling of ACP.
Later ACP clappet valve to be reset with the help of ACP resetting key which is available with C & W
staff or Guard of the train,
183‘Once ACP is reset, the flow indicator white needle drops back to the red needle level and lamp
LSPAR gets extinguished. The train should be restarted as per the rules,
NOTE:
‘Whenever Clappet valve could not be reset or clappet valve leaking or any leakage on ACP pipe line,
close the ACP COC duly informing the Guard. Message should be given to arrange C & W staff to
attend at the next TXR point.
before starting the train
In the photograph white needle reading is assumption for explanation
184Operating Manual and Trouble Shoting Directory for Electric Locomotive
19.10. Precautions to be taken on the air brake system:
4. Do not try to couple or uncouple the air pipes unless angle cocks on either side are closed
fully.
2. While the loco is attached, be present and personally ensure that FP and BP air hosepipes
are correctly connected and the angle cocks are opened
3. Ensure load or empty handle of box wagon is in the appropriate position according to the load
conditions
4. Do not work the train, unless the continuity test is done when fresh BPC is issued or loco is
intercepted or loco is attached or loco is reattached after shunting is performed on to the train.
5. Do not start the train,from the yard or crew changing point or when the loco is reattached on a
train at the way side station unless the BP pressure is adequate and at least in 10 vehicles
behind the loco brakes are getting applied through AS applications.
6. Keep the Air Flow Indicator's red needle over white needle before starting the train, After
brake application on run, to release the brakes keep A on release, wait tll the air flow
indicator white needle settles at the red needle. Then only notch up the loco.
7. Whenever Air Flow Indicator’s white needle shoots up suddenly with A handle at release,
stop the train and ascertain the reason,
8, Due to any reason ifthe train is stopped in mid section, keep A9 handle in minimum reduction
before attending the trouble on the train, so that train will nat rol back
9. Whenever the train is stabled at any station after detaching the loco, open BP angle cock of,
the first vehicle of the formation, so that the train brakes get applied fully and this avoids
rolling back of the train
10. Whenever the loco becomes defective or dead or the train detained for more than 15 minutes
due to OHE trouble etc., in mid-section or at station, keep the A9 handle in application
position and drop BP pressure is sufficiently to keep the train brakes in applied position,
