Train Charging Rules: Charging points are installed in every coach of the train. So that the passengers do not face any problem during the journey. But at this time in the night the charging points are closed. Know why?

Every day around 2.5 crore people travel by train in India. Railways is the lifeline of the country. Which connects people from small villages to big cities. People use trains for everyday work as well as long distance travel.

Trains have become an important part of every Indian's life. During the journey, the convenience of the passengers is also taken care of. Many facilities are available from food and drink arrangements to bedroll. One of these facilities is the facility to charge mobile and laptop.

Charging points are installed in every coach. So that the battery of the passengers' phones does not run out during the journey. But very few people know. These charging points of the train do not remain on for 24 hours. They are closed at a fixed time in the night.

People think that whenever you plug in the phone, charging will start. But this does not happen. Railways gives a special reason behind this. Many people forget to put their devices on charging while sleeping at night. Charging for hours continuously can cause the device to overheat.

This increases the risk of fire. To reduce this risk, Railways has implemented a rule to turn off the charging system at night. Which is an important part of safety. Usually, charging points are turned off from 11 pm to 5 am.

However, there may be a slight change in the timing according to the type of train. But this rule is followed in most trains. The charging system is automatically turned off. So that any kind of incident can be avoided.

So next time when you travel in a train and charging does not work at night. Then understand that Railways is taking care of your safety. It would be better to charge the phone during the day itself. It is important to have this information while traveling in a train.
