Abstract: In order to explore the cause of railway signal power accident,analyze the railway signal power accident,sort out the various factors leading to the signal power accident,the social network analysis method was applied to study the correlation of various factors. The key factors causing the accident of signal power supply were identified. The results show that the factors of human and material in the signal power supply accident are the direct cause, and the factors of environment and management are indirect causes and they influence each other. Weak safety awareness at all levels, lack of safety training, imperfect regulations, weak supervision and management of production safety and insufficient security investment are the key factors forthe signal power accidents. Bad safety environment is another important factor, it often happens that the construction units or individuals who operate illegally in the railway line damage the electric and signal cables.

Key words: signal power supply, accident, social network analysis(SNA) method, causes analyze, key factor
