If there is an Acses fault that doesn't require a cut-out, what must the Dispatcher do?

When faced with an Acses fault that doesn't require a cut-out, the Dispatcher must notify both the dispatcher and the conductor with details of the fault. This action is essential for several reasons.

First, communicating the specifics of the fault ensures that all personnel involved are aware of the issue, allowing them to make informed decisions regarding safety and operations. It creates a comprehensive understanding of the situation, enabling the crew to adjust their strategies or responses accordingly.

Keeping the dispatcher informed reinforces the chain of command and ensures that any necessary follow-up actions or updates can be coordinated effectively. Reliability in communication is paramount in railway operations to maintain safety and efficiency.

In contrast, unrestricted speed or movement without restrictions could compromise safety, as there could be underlying issues related to the fault that haven't been fully assessed or communicated. Requesting a system check instead of notifying all relevant parties would also hinder effective decision-making, as it does not ensure that those on the ground are immediately aware of potential safety concerns.
