Rail industry experts gathered for a summit on power resilience hosted by Bender UK.
Rail industry experts gathered for a power resilience summit hosted by Bender UK in Ulverston. Attendees included engineers, designers and infrastructure specialists from across the UK rail sector, including representatives from Network Rail, Amey, AtkinsRéalis and the Institution of Engineering and Technology.
The event took place amid growing government emphasis on strengthening the UK's critical infrastructure. Discussions centred on moving the rail industry from reactive fault response to proactive asset management. Industry leaders highlighted the value of continuous monitoring, fault-location technologies and data-driven maintenance strategies to help engineers spot emerging risks sooner, maintain operational continuity and improve the reliability of critical power systems.
Technologies discussed included Bender's RS4 Tier 1 and Tier 2 signal power monitoring systems and the Bender Pulse platform. These systems provide greater visibility of asset condition, support insulation monitoring and earth-fault location, and enable centralised data analysis to improve fault diagnosis and inform maintenance decisions. Delegates also explored the importance of uninterruptible power supply systems in maintaining operational continuity across the rail network.
