Energy lab
Energy lab
Energy Lab allows testing of electrical equipment by connecting to the rail network 3.000V DC, allowing the validation of its functionality in real operating conditions. It also allows testing equipment isolated railway network with DC voltages of 1500V or 3.000V and nominal power up to 12MW and 72MW for 5 minutes. The laboratory’s main purpose is to validate equipment, procedures or systems in a real environment without the constraints of facilities related to railway operations.
