A system includes a signal system controller electrically connected to a first track section of a first rail of a track system, and electrically connected to a second track section of the first rail, in which the first track section is separated from the second track section by a first rail insulated joint. The signal system controller is configured to transmit a test signal on the first track section and configured to receive the test signal on the second track section to test the first rail insulated joint between the first track section and the second track section.

    Il est décrit un système comprenant un contrôleur du système de signaux connecté de manière électronique à une première section de voie dune première ligne dun système de voie et connectée de manière électronique à une deuxième section de voie de la première ligne. Un joint de rail isolant sépare les deux sections de voie. Le contrôleur du système de signaux est configuré dans le but de transmettre un signal dessai sur la première section de voie et pour recevoir le signal dessai sur la deuxième section de voie, dans le but de tester le joint de rail isolant entre la première et la deuxième sections de voie.
