SBB Train Stations at a Glance

The control and error messaging system for the SBB (LSS-CH) replaces 23 different control systems with WAGO’s automation technology.
The SBB monitors the electrical systems at around 1,500 locations, like train stations and tunnels, throughout Switzerland. At the end of 2012, SBB commissioned a comprehensive control and error messaging system for this task to ensure a rapid and targeted response to malfunctions and faults.

Why WAGO?

  • More than 1,000 WAGO stations are being used successfully by the SBB.

  • A high degree of standardization can be achieved through configuration using the WAGO Webserver. 

  • Two standardized versions of the WAGO-I/O-SYSTEM, for 60 and 200 data points, make the start-up process faster.

Even before the first travelers arrive, the lights go on at many Swiss train stations. This also occurs at locations where no personnel are on site. In addition to lighting, there are other systems that the SBB must control and monitor, for example, elevators, escalators, clocks, door locks, building technology systems and pumps. Previously, around 23 different control systems, scattered across Switzerland, accomplished these tasks. In 2005, the SBB began a project to replace these different systems with a single new one. “We wanted to reduce the complexity and thus make the costs more transparent,” explains Milun Bozovic, Product Manager for Building and Control Technology at the SBB. At the end of 2012, they were ready: The control and error messaging system (LSS-CH for short) at the SBB became operative across the country following a four-year roll-out period.

Using the LSS-CH, the SBB controls railway electro-technical systems. These include ventilation, elevators, escalators, clocks, building technology systems, door locks and pumps.
