Minutes of POH Co-ordination Meetino held at Electric locomotive workshop, Bhusawal, Central Railwav on 26.1 1.2OO9.
CWM/BSL welcomed Adviser(Elect)/ RS , Railway Board , DRM / Bhusawal and EDSE / RDSO, CEE (loco)/ CLW, CELEs / CWMs and other officers from different Zonal Railways. He apprised the group of the history, development and achievements of BSL workshop in the field of electric locos since it was established.
Formal inauguration of the meeting took place by ignition of 'Deep Jyoti' by Adv.L(RS) & DRM/BSL.
Address by Adv.URS):
Complemented CWMIBSL for efforts made in achieving the highest ever outturn in 2008-09. This needs to be further increased and maintained along with quality for improving reliability of electric locos.
Complimented Zonal Railways for satisfactory performance with respect to equipment failures and punctuality performance during 2008-09 and for the period April to Sep'09. However, the above should not be a cause of complacency as target ahead are further challenging. Also, in absolute terms there has been a drastic increase in the number of trains losing punctuality everyday. These cases might not be getting reported earlier but are cause of loco defects which needs to be reduced. Each & every case need to be examined. CELEs should go into the depth to ascertain the reasons and take corrective action.
IR is passing through difficult stage as large no. of accidents have taken place in past three months. There has been cases where drivers have been responsible or contributory. Besides concentrating on the maintenance aspects of electric locos, there is need to gear up and address these safety issues as well. Advancements in technology and availability of systems like TPWS , AWS etc. for the aid of drivers should be welcomed. Communication between Driver & Guard may be streamlined and drivers should be closely monitored through rigorous footplates etc.
Though the purpose of meeting is allocations of capacity to workshops for POH and re-winding, there is need to review the role of the workshops. The workshops which used to play a back seat role are now required to gear up for regular requirements of sheds and play an active role so that the overall efficiency of the system is improved. During the meeting while discussing the regular agenda items, this aspect needs to be kept in mind as well.
Discussions and decisions taken on Aaenda items:

Though the failure rate of electric locos POHed at PER continue to be the lowest, there has been overall deterioration which has been mainly because of Pneumatics and EMC/EPCs . PER informed of having started blowing of pipelines and also the overhauling of Air dryer which was not being done earlier and confirmed of delivering improved quality products in future.
NCR & WCR reported that the quality of POH at CB workshop is not up to the mark which is using non-standard material and not changing VCB kits, cable cleats, damaged cables and air flow relays etc. CELE / NR should audit the quality and ensure that material from approved sources only is used and 100% must change items are replaced.
Workshops reported that customer railways were not giving feedback on failures of off-POHed locos. They are not serious to attend the customer feedback meetings organized by POH shops for interaction for improving quality.
Zonal Railways to furnish the information /feedback to workshops timely. Customer feedback meetings must be attended at least by an officer along with one supervisor from each customer shed.
All the workshops to develop an online feedback module and issue login & password to all the Zonal Railways to enter failure details on off POH locos. CELEs to ensure the compliance by 31.12.09 and report to Board.
Workshops should ensure a minimum 98% compliance of Must Changed Items as laid down in RDSO TC no. 21. Any deviation to the target can only be permitted by written permission of concerned CELE. Concerned Railways are also advised to check the level of compliance of MUST CHANGE items.
Though thin walled cables are being used by workshops and CLW, EPDM cable cleats are not being used. RDSO to re-view the performance of EPDM cable cleats provided on locos at TKD & CNB and also on the locos being provided by BHEL and advise Zonal Rlys & CLW for provision during POH / MTR and on new production. This should be done by 31.12.09
Railways expressed difficulties in rehabilitation of tap changers due to discrepancies in maintenance kits. A committee comprising of EDSEIRDSO (Convener), CELE/ER and CELEIWR was nominated to standardize the description of items and freezing kits for AOH, IOH & POH to overcome the difficulties in rehabilitation of tap changers. RDSO should submit report to Board by 31.12.09.
RDSO informed of having collected feedback on 'Must change' items from all the Zonal Railways for review of TC-21 i.e. list of 'Must change' items. There does not appear to be significant change in the existing list. RDSO shall issue revised list by 15.12.09.
Proposed allotment of POH, POH+RC & MTR to various workshops for 2010-11 was discussed and final allotment is enclosed at Annex A. List of loco nos. for MTR is enclosed at Annex 8.
Tentative allotment of POH, RC & MTR for 2010-11 and 2010-12 is placed at Annex C.
2.0 Traction Motor Rewinding
Detailed allotment of TM rewinding for various workshops was discussed and final allotment is enclosed as Annex D. Considering vide variation in cycle time taken for rewinding HS 15250A armatures i.e.
CEE/CR 52 days at TMW / NKRD against 35 days at TMS / CNB and increase in arising of HS 15250A armatures, a committee comprising of CWMINKRD (Convener), CELE / NCR and SrDEE/TMS/ CNB is nominated to audit the rewinding processes at TMW / NKRD and TMS/ CNB and submit report through CEE/CR by 31.01.10.
TM shops to strictly ensure purchase of seasoned commutator assembly with steel parts Sr.EDSE/ only in compliance of instructions already issued by RDSO. RDSO to reiterate the RDSO instructions.
TMS / CNB should develop necessary infrastructure for undertaking the rewinding of Traction Motor stators and rotors for WAG9 / WAP7 three phase locos so as to be ready by 2011-12 to take up the work.

The work of conversion of plain suspension bearing to roller suspension bearing on TAO motored locos is slow. Out of the sanctioned 64 WAP-1 locos to NR and SR, only two locomotive have been modified so far. Both the railways should expedite the work. Few WAP-1 locos are due for MTR during the year 2009-10. Respective railway may transfer corresponding sanctions to Dahod which shall ensure conversion during MTR. DHD workshop should co-ordinate and plan material so as to turn out WAP-1 locomotives after conversion only.

Sr.EDSE/ RDSO
Workshops have not been complying fully to the revised instructions issued by RDSO vide letter no. EL/3.1.10/1 dated 27.11.08 for cab modification during POH. CWM / DyCEEs of the workshops to ensure 100 % compliance. No loco to be turned out after POH without crew friendly cab modification from lStJan' 10 onwards.
3.5 PU painting:
CLW and all the workshops undertaking POH of electric locos have now started PU painting on electric locos. Considering the need to standardize quality, a committee comprising of DSE(CS) /RDSO (Convener), Sr.DEE(TRS)/GZB/NR and Sr.DEE(TRS)/LGD/SCR has been nominated to audit the infrastructure and processes of PU painting in different workshops/CLW along with quality of paint being used and submit action plan to improve the quality further by 31.12.09.
As regards periodicity, Zonal Railways were of the view that periodicity prescribed by RDSO i.e. POH to POH is too long. In such a long period, which is 6 years for conventional coaching locos and 9 years for freight, PU painting would loose its gloss and may not last. Some of the Railways have send their observationsand views to RDSO. RDSO to review and advise Zonal Railways accordingly.
3.6 Uniform costing of POH of Electric Locos :
The average cost of POH/POH+RC/MTR for various workshops has been as under:
I MTR 1 105 1
Activity PO H
There exists wide variation in costing of POH in different workshops. The average Dy.CEE/PER cost of POH/ POH+RC of PER workshop is extremely high as compared to other CEE/SR workshops. DyCEE/PER and CELE / SR were advised to review the costing methodology
in association with finance.
CWMIBSL informed that suitable modifications are being undertaken in existing software to bring the costing system in line with the directions issued by Rly
CWM/BSL Board. The revised software shall be circulated to all workshops for CEE/CR implementation by 31.12.09 . However, the software for integration with AFRES /
PRIME shall be got developed by 01.04.10.

WRly has processed the work through a composite advertised tender i.e. including civil, electrical, S&T works and M&P as advised by Board. Proposal for NIT duly vetted by associate finance is with WRly HQ for GM's approval which is likely to be cleared by 15.12.09.
