Complete inspection of Daegu Metro Line 3 electrical control system… Target for 28 programming

On the 9th, Daegu Transportation Corporation began a thorough inspection of the electrical control devices in the train, which are believed to be the cause of the recent breakdown on Urban Railway Line 3.

The electric control device is a device that converts voltage and supplies electricity to the motor to enable the train to move.

This comprehensive inspection will be conducted day and night for 28 trains on Line 3. One train consists of three compartments.

Line 3 is scheduled to operate normally during the inspection period as only a maximum of 22 trains are operated at the same time during rush hour.

An official from the Daegu Transportation Corporation said, “We will begin the inspection starting today and complete it as quickly as possible,” and added, “We are extensively looking into the cause of the failure, including the electrical control system.”

Previously, on the 7th, train operations were delayed in all sections between Jisan and Beommul Station due to a vehicle breakdown, but operations were normalized after about 30 minutes.

The train in question was stored at Beommul Depot and then moved to Chilgok Depot, which is equipped with inspection facilities.

In addition, there has been a series of operational disruptions, such as the lightning protection facility between Suseong-gu Community Stadium Station and Yongji Station caught fire last September, causing a power supply failure in the area and stopping trains in the entire section for about three hours.
