A system for testing a traction block, such as a railway traction block, includes two zones that are physically separated from one another, an operational zone located in a container and divided into at least two parts. One part is a command part accessible by an operator during testing, and the other part is a high-voltage part inaccessible during testing. The system also includes a test zone located outside the container, and configured to receive the traction block to be tested. The test zone is able to be supplied with electricity during the test by the operational zone using dedicated connections.
