A COMPENSATION CONDUCTOR--AS AN ALTERNATIVE TO THE PROBLEMS OF ELECTRICAL INTERFERENCE

DER KOMPENSATIONSLEITER--EINE ALTERNATIVE ZUR LOESUNG ELEKTRISCHER BEEINFLUSSUNGSPROBLEME

In order to reduce interference caused by railway electrical equipment on nearby signalling and telecommunications cables, measures have been taken with regard to both vehicles and equipment to weaken harmonics. As power increases, the effects of fundamentals are correspondingly greater. To reduce the latter, it may be advisable to place a compensation cable near the catenary or near the cable suffering interference (the telecommunication line for instance). For economic reasons, it is often fitted on catenary masts.
