Infrastructure Customer. The carrying out of this project also required checking against the ERTMS basic requirements, in particular the SUBSET026. the tests to be undertaken by listing and defining all the types of tests necessary for the system, to define the phases and the stages of the tests, and to define the means necessary for the tests. The starting documents used for the drafting of the test plan are the Customer Requirements Specification of the project and the functional and design specifications of the system. In the context of the tram system, the Test Plan must normally specify the customer acceptance and type tests, the factory tests and the site tests. The Test Plan also specifies the tools that will be used to carry out the tests, prior to their use. PHASE 2: DRAFTING OF THE TEST SHEETS The Test Sheets break down into five parts, namely: • Factory tests, • Integration tests with 2 interlockings • Static site tests, • Interface tests, • Dynamic tests on site, i.e. with real trams. PHASE 3: EXECUTION OF THE FACTORY TESTS The execution of the tests in factory started in March 2006 and lasted 3 months. A team of two engineers was put into place for this phase. The starting documents for the execution of these factory tests were the Test Plan and factory Test Sheets. The tools used were mainly made up of a trackside simulator and a GTC simulator (GTC). The test documentation was annotated by hand "OK" or "Not OK", and “fault logs” were generated in the event of an unsuccessful test. PHASE 4: EXECUTION OF THE SITE TESTS The testing on site started in June 2006 and lasted 5 months. A team of two engineers was used for this phase, with 5 engineers at peak times. The trackside cupboards including the relay frames, validated in the factory, had been installed on site. Their installation was checked by the assemblers. The trackside equipment was installed, cabled and checked by the assemblers. Again the test documentation was annotated by hand "OK" or "Not OK", and a Fault Log was generated in the event of an unsuccessful test. This project was a true challenge for SAFE RAIL. Today, the 26 level crossings are in service and function in accordance with their specifications TESTING OF THE 26 “LEVEL CROSSINGS” OF THE “LIGNE À L’EST DE L’AGGLOMÉRATION” TRAMWAY LINE IN LYON This job was awarded to SAFE RAIL by ALSTOM Transport in February 2006 and the commissioning of the new tramway line (the third one in Lyon) was successfully achieved in December last year. This project was undertaken in four phases PHASE 1: DRAFTING OF THE TEST PLAN The Test Plan is the basis of the organisation of the tests and the purpose of its drafting is, to define all EURAILmag Business & Technology Issue 15 http://www.safe-rail.com http://www.safe-rail.com
