Abstract

This article presents the analysis and design of a wireless remote controller for performing the engagement manoeuvres and trip circuit breakers and disconnecting switches located in different substations of the National Society of Railway of Congo (SNCC). With the remote controller without son, SNCC avoid its expenses until then to send technicians in the different sub-stations for controlling circuit breakers and disconnecting switches on site. It will save time of execution of the manoeuvre of closing and tripping; and will quickly provide service in transport by rail for freight and travellers.
