STANDARDISATION OF THE ELECTRICAL EQUIPMENT OF PASSENGER COACHES. EVALUATION OF THE TESTS WITH SEVERAL ENERGY SUPPLY SYSTEMS FOR AIR CONDITIONED PASSENGER COACHES

This report gives a brief description of the different energy supply systems; compared are characteristics of output, conversion system, efficiencies and installed weight. The report also describes specific tests with static converters. This report is closely connected with report B 107/RP 4, which describes the different air conditioning plants. In some points, therefore, understanding will be helped by reference to the section describing the air conditioning plant installation principle.
