Proper Testing of High-Speed DC Circuit-Breakers in a Railway Environment

High-speed DC circuit-breakers, in this paper referred to as circuit-breakers, are present in all sorts of rail infrastructure. National or urban railways, tramways or metro's, they all rely on circuit-breakers to protect them from disastrous situations.
