Abstract

The control module controlling points has become high-tech. but the introduction of relevant company's inspection intervals and methods, and the adoption of the way which is used in relay interlock system became the cause of a failure by excessive and incorrect maintenance. The Human error in failure recovery process can cause vital accidents including train derailment, the points monitoring system could prevent this problem by monitoring points' operation condition in real time. After conducting the changed inspection intervals that applied the results of the criticality of each failure type, MTBF, MTTR, availability, maintainer's opinion, the work became simplified, and, the failure did not occur for 4 consecutive years in contrast to the previous annual average of 11 failures.

선로전환기를 제어하는 제어모듈은 첨단화되었으나 타 도시철도 운영기관의 점검주기 및 점검방식을 그대로 도입, 계전연동장치를 사용하던 시기와 동일하게 적용하여 과잉정비 및 오정비로 인한 장애를 발생시켰다. 장애복구과정에서 인적오류는 열차의 탈선 등 중대사고로 이루어질 수 있어 선로전환기 모니터링시스템을 설치하고 실시간으로 선로전환기의 운영 상태를 자동으로 감시할 수 있도록 하였다. 고장유형별 치명도, 평균고장간격(MTBF), 평균복구간격(MTTR), 가용률을 산출한 결과와, 점검항목별 유지보수요원의 의견을 반영하여 점검주기를 변경하고 유지보수를 시행한 후에 작업이 간소화되었고 연평균 11건 발생하던 고장이 4년 연속 한건도 발생하지 않았다.
