3 ENGINEERING SPECIFICATION AC SHELF RELAYS L1-CHE-SPE-304 Version: 1 Effective from: 1 st July 2018 PREFACE This Specification replaces VRIOGS AC Shelf Relays. The contents of this Specification were prepared by the Victorian Rail Industry Operators Group (VRIOG). This VRIOG Standard has been rebadged as an MTM document due to the retirement of VRIOG Standards as of 30 th June This Specification will be managed under the Engineering Standards Development Procedure (L1-CHE-PRO-032). As documents are uncontrolled once printed, it is imperative to check the currency of the Document on The Depot or the MTM s Document Portal which is available externally at All MTM Standards and Specifications are periodically reviewed, and new editions are published which incorporate learnings and Technical Notes (formerly known as Design Practice Notes). Technical Notes are issued between editions which correct any errors or ambiguities contained in an MTM Standard/Specifications. Standards and Specifications may also be withdrawn and/ or replaced. In the event of conflicts or discrepancies between different types of technical documents, refer to the order of precedence as defined in Chief Engineer s Guideline Engineering Standards Listing (L1-CHE-GDL-005). Note: Any clarification described in a Technical Note or Design Practice Note shall take precedence over the impacted clause or clauses in the associated MTM Standard/Specification. In the event a clause within a Standard/Specification is not achievable a waiver will need to be raised, please refer to the Engineering Waiver Procedure - L1-CHE-PRO-001. Note: MTM does not have the authority to grant waivers on any Standards/Specifications or clauses within a Standard/Specification which relate to Government Regulations or Legislation, e.g. Disability Discrimination Act.

9 VRIOGS Revision B 1 SECTION 1.0 CONVENTIONS 1) Words or phrases that appear capitalised out of context are defined within the Definitions section of this VRIOG Standard. 2) The word Shall is to be understood as mandatory. 3) The word Should is to be understood as non-mandatory i.e. advisory or recommended. 4) Uncontrolled Standards may not be referenced within the VRIOG Standards. These include former PTC Standards, Franchisee Standards, Franchisee Subcontractor Standards and Infrastructure Lessee Standards. 5) Controlled Standards, including Australian Standards and other VRIOG Standards, may be referenced but only if: The referenced item can not be adequately explained with an amount of text that could not reasonably be inserted into the body of the Standard. The reader is not referenced to another Controlled Standard necessary for the item to be adequately explained i.e. one document link only. The referenced document is a Figure or table and could not reasonably be included in the appendices of the Standard. 6) The format employed in the VRIOG Standards is compatible with Australian Standards, and will be used from this point on. 7) The numbering system for the VRIOG Standards is chronologically sequential from the point of introduction, and is not based on any form of interpretive system. 8) The VRIOG Standards contain engineering information necessary to operate a safe Railway. VRIOG Standards will not contain any information that can be construed as a work instruction, procedure, process or protocol. This information forms the basis of each individual entity s Safety Accreditation Certification, and, as such, is outside the scope of VRIOG Standards.

14 6 VRIOGS Revision B SECTION 5.0 SEALING OF RELAYS All vital relays supplied by manufacturers and authorised relay servicing staff shall be sealed. All relays installed in the field that are not presently sealed shall be considered as not fit for service and shall be removed from service ASAP. Window frame fasteners shall be sealed with wax and where fitted, door shall have lead seal affixed. The seal shall not be broken in the field except in exceptional circumstances when directed by an authorised representative of an ARO Infrastructure Manager. In the event of a defect being observed in a relay, the seal shall be left intact until the relay is examined by an appropriately competent railway safety worker. Only railway safety workers approved by an ARO Infrastructure Manager shall be authorised to seal a railway signalling relay for use within the Victorian Railway Network.

15 VRIOGS Revision B 7 SECTION 6.0 IDENTIFICATION AND LABELLING 6.1 Relay Identification Each relay shall be identified by a unique serial number assigned by the manufacturer. The ARO Infrastructure Manager may assign another unique serial number to assist maintenance of their asset register. 6.2 Labelling Labelling shall generally be in accordance with the requirements of VRIOG Standard General Requirements for Labelling of Signalling Equipment VRIOGS Approved relay labels shall be securely fixed to the inside of the front glass window (or as otherwise specified), in a position where they do not obscure a view of the relay operation. Labels shall be fixed in such a manner that they cannot become detached and interfere with the operation of the relay. The AC shelf relay shall have the following label details (Refer to Figure 1): a) Assigned asset number b) VRIOG Type (See Section 3.5) c) Control coil (Volts):- Drop away voltage (D.A) Pick up voltage (P.U) Compression voltage (COMP) d) Local coil:- Voltage (V) Ampere (A) VRIOG INFASTRUCTURE MANAGER Figure 1 Label for AC Shelf Relay Following any subsequent overhaul or examination the relay shall be retested and the results recorded on the label (See Figure 2). This label shall be securely fixed to

16 8 VRIOGS Revision B the outside of the front glass window (or as otherwise specified), in a position where they do not obscure a view of the relay operation. 6.3 Asset Management System Figure 2 Label for Overhaul Relay Each relay shall be supplied with a relay record card (See Figure 3) which is contained within a REPLACEMENT or SERVICEABLE RELAY envelope which shall be securely attached to the relay (See Figure 4). The card shall be completed by the person installing the relay. The card is to be then replaced with in the envelope and sent to the relevant Infrastructure Asset Manager for updating of the Infrastructure Asset Management System. (Front) Figure 3 Relay Record Card (Back) Figure 4 - Relay Card Envelope

17 VRIOGS Revision B 9 SECTION 7.0 PACKAGING The contact assemblies and other fittings within railway signalling safety relays are the quite fragile. The relays shall be packaged and handled in such a manner that the transport and storage of these units does not materially influence their subsequent inservice performance. The relays shall be packaged such that their performance including contact resistance shall not deteriorate if stored in an environment equivalent to their operating environment (Refer to VRIOG Standard Environmental Conditions VRIOGS ) for 12 months before installation.

18 10 VRIOGS Revision B SECTION 8.0 CARE AND HANDLING Extreme care shall be exercised in transporting and handling relays. Because of the risk that relays may have been dropped or damaged without knowledge, any relay which is to be placed in service shall be visually inspected before being placed into service. If there is any sign of damage to the case or to the internal assembly of the relay it shall not be put into service but sent for retest and if necessary, servicing. Any relay which is bumped should be closely examined and an operational check should be performed, and if need they should be returned for overhaul and retest. Any relay which is dropped should be returned for overhaul and retest immediately.
