Abstract
The paper considers the problems of existing methods of diagnosing elements of the contact network. It has been presented a statistical analysis of the causes of failures of elements of the contact network in recent years. The authors describe a methodology for assessing the residual life of insulators and propose a way to improve methods for diagnosing the condition of insulators. The authors propose a method for external diagnosis of the condition of the insulator for further decision-making on extending its service life. An algorithm for diagnosing insulators using the use of unmanned aerial vehicles is described. The topic under consideration will be of interest to specialists in the field of power supply of railway transport and external power supply of the energy system. The issue of the possibility of using UAVs to diagnose insulators requires further study.
