A control system and method which includes storing the geographic location of the neutral sections along the path onboard the vehicle. A GPS system on the vehicle determines the geographic location of the vehicle. A program of the control system determines the position of the vehicle relative to the position of the neutral section from memory using the GPS to determine the location of the vehicle. Next, it provides a control for maintaining the circuit breaker of the vehicle open as the source collector passes through the neutral section.
L'invention concerne un système de commande, et un procédé qui consiste à enregistrer l'emplacement géographique de sections neutres le long du trajet effectué à bord d'un véhicule. Un système GPS embarqué dans le véhicule détermine l'emplacement géographique du véhicule. Un programme du système de commande détermine la position du véhicule relativement à la position de la section neutre, à partir d'une mémoire utilisant le GPS, afin de localiser le véhicule. Le programme active ensuite une commande pour maintenir le disjoncteur du véhicule ouvert pendant que le collecteur source traverse la section neutre.
