Abstract
Pantograph heads damage occurs due to the frost on overhead lines in winter. This
is because the pantograph heads separate from the overhead line due to the frost and
a large electric arc is generated. Large damage to the pantograph not only leads to
vehicle breakdown but also to the damage on trolley wire. In this study, we use a
pantograph monitoring method to understand the current state of frost areas, and study
the frost detection method to prevent damage and reduce delay by automatic current
control.
