Special care must be taken when attaching sensors to rails, pointwork, point machines or anything electrically connected to them. |

Sensor requirements:
- Each sensor must have electrical isolation between the 4-20mA output and the trackwork to a minimum of 4M Ohms at 250V.
- 250mA fuses must be provided in each leg of the current loop.
- Only Network Rail approved points load pins may be used.
- When monitoring the pressure in clamp lock power packs, only pressure sensors approved by the manufacturer of the power pack must be used.
- Where sensors are attached to both rails, a risk assessment must be carried out to ensure that there is no risk of a track circuit being false fed
