Pre-Installation Safety Checks

Track Authority Verification

Confirm work order/possession with dispatcher

Verify power isolation on electrified tracks (minimum 3-point check)

Clamp Inspection

Check for:

Jaw wear >3mm

Bolt thread damage

Cracks in stress areas

Corrosion >25% of surface

Reject any clamp failing visual inspection

Environmental Assessment

Measure rail temperature (thermal expansion calculations)

Check for ice/snow accumulation

Verify daylight/visibility conditions

Inspection Schedule

First 2 hours: Check every 30 minutes

Next 6 hours: Hourly inspections

Thereafter: Every 4 hours

Critical Inspection Points

Bolt tension (retorque if >10% loss)

Rail alignment (max 3mm deviation)

Jaw contact (no visible gaps)

Crack formation
