All rights reserved.IntroductionThis introduction is not part of IEEE Std 1896-2016, IEEE Standard for Identification of Contact Wire Used in Overhead Contact Systems.The Overhead Contact Systems Subco
39、mmittee was formed in 2001 with the purpose of developing standards governing the design and construction of overhead contact systems for rail transit. The primary concern of the Identification of Contact Wire Used in Overhead Contact Systems Working Group was to simplify practices and applications
40、for the identification of contact wire used in overhead contact systems (OCSs) for rail transit vehicles, electric trolleybuses (ETBs) and electric railway locomotives. The majority of the present operating electrified rail systems use contact wires that have no identification markings so the type o
41、f wire in use cannot be identified in the field or on trolley reels as to electrical conductivity or metallurgical composition. This stan-dard specifies the parameters solely used in the marking of contact wire used in overhead contact systems. This standard does not cover the markings of other type
42、s of wires and cables used with overhead or underground transit and railway systems.This standard is intended to apply to all rail transit and railway systems that are electrically powered utilizing overhead contact wires, which are defined to include heavy rail vehicles (“subway or elevated cars”)
43、and light rail vehicles (streetcars), trolley buses, locomotives and railway electric multiple unit (EMU) cars, fully-auto-mated, driverless implementations of rail transit vehicles sometimes included in the mode of transit referred to as Automated Guideway Transit (AGT), and, to the extent that the
44、 vehicles using overhead contact wires do not have other unique requirements, where this standard can be applied.8Copyright 2016 IEEE. All rights reserved.Contents1.
