Abstract :
Fault location in railways overhead lines is still an open problem because the technique actually applied may requires several tens of minutes to reach the goal. The paper proposes an online measurement system for fault location and, thanks to the support of “Rete Ferroviaria Italiana SpA”, the results of tests performed on a real railway.
