Current Measurement Solutions for Railway Infrastructure
GMC-I PROSyS expertise is in the design and manufacture of sensors, instruments and systems for electrical parameter measurement, providing high accuracy current monitoring solutions for the railway infrastructure applications. With extensive experience in current measurement technology, the company develops robust and reliable solutions that help rail operators, infrastructure managers and system integrators improve asset visibility, enhance reliability and support condition-based maintenance programmes.
As rail networks continue to embrace digitalisation and predictive maintenance strategies, access to accurate electrical data has become increasingly important. GMC-I PROSyS provides the measurement technology required to monitor critical assets, identify developing faults and support data-driven maintenance decisions. Our solutions are designed for demanding railway environments where reliability, safety and long-term performance are essential.
Non-Intrusive Current Measurement Technology
GMC-I PROSyS is recognised as an expert in non-intrusive current measurement, delivering solutions that enable current monitoring without disconnecting conductors or interrupting normal operation. This approach significantly reduces installation time, minimises operational disruption and improves safety during both new installations and retrofit projects.
By providing a simple and effective method of monitoring electrical performance, our current measurement solutions help railway organisations gain greater insight into asset condition while avoiding costly downtime and complex installation requirements.
Split-Core Current Transducers for Rail Applications
At the heart of many railway monitoring systems is GMC-I PROSyS’ split-core current transducer technology. Designed for fast
installation around existing conductors, split-core transducers eliminate the need to disconnect cabling, making them ideal for trackside infrastructure,
signalling systems, battery-backed power supplies and electrical distribution equipment.
Available in a wide range of AC and DC measurement variants,these transducers deliver highly accurate output signals suitable for integration with asset monitoring platforms. Their compact design and ease of installation make them particularly attractive for upgrade projects and condition-monitoring deployments across operational rail networks.
High-Reliability Sensing for Critical Rail Assets
Railway infrastructure demands technologies capable of delivering reliable performance over extended operational lifecycles. GMC-I PROSyS current transducers are engineered to provide stable and repeatable measurements in environments subject to electrical noise, temperature variation and continuous operation. Also, rated for trackside application for all mechanical requirements.
This high-reliability sensing capability enables operators to continuously monitor asset health and identify subtle changes in electrical behaviour that may indicate deterioration, abnormal loading or developing faults. By providing reliable measurement data, maintenance teams are better equipped to intervene before failures impact railway operations.
Trackside Asset Monitoring and Condition-Based Maintenance
Modern maintenance strategies increasingly rely on condition-based monitoring to maximise asset availability and optimise maintenance expenditure. GMC-I PROSyS solutions provide the accurate electrical measurements required to support these data-driven approaches.
Our current transducers are widely suited to monitoring signalling power supplies, level crossing installations, telecommunications equipment, battery systems, DC distribution networks and other critical trackside assets. Continuous monitoring of current consumption can provide valuable information regarding equipment performance, operational trends and early signs of degradation.
Through the collection of accurate real-time data, infrastructure managers can move away from reactive maintenance practices and towards predictive maintenance strategies that improve reliability while reducing unnecessary maintenance interventions.
AC and DC Current Measurement Expertise
Railway electrical systems often encompass a complex mix of AC and DC power networks. GMC-I PROSyS offers measurement solutions capable of accurately monitoring both AC and DC currents across a broad range of operating conditions.
Whether measuring signalling power supplies, battery charging systems, traction auxiliaries or distribution networks, our transducers provide accurate, isolated output signals that enable effective monitoring and analysis of electrical system performance. This versatility allows railway organisations to implement a consistent approach to current monitoring across tens of asset classes with wide measuring range from mA to thousands of amps.
Monitoring Critical Rail Assets with Confidence
Railway operators face continual pressure to improve network reliability, increase asset availability and optimise maintenance resources. GMC-I PROSyS supports these objectives through innovative current measurement technologies that deliver the accurate and reliable data needed to make
informed decisions.
Combining non-intrusive installation, split-core current transducer technology, high-reliability sensing and proven expertise in AC and DC current measurement, GMC-I PROSyS helps railway organisations monitor critical rail assets with confidence. Our solutions provide the foundation for smarter maintenance, improved operational performance and safer, more reliable railway infrastructure.
