ANALYSIS OF OPERATION AND INCREASE IN RELIABILITY OF ENERGY SUPPLY SYSTEMS OF ELECTRIFIED RAILROADS

ANALIZ RABOTY I POVYSHENIE NADEZHNOSTI USTROISTV ENERGOSNABZHENIIA ELEKTRIFITSIROVANNYKH ZHELEZNYKH DOROG

On the basis of many years of experience, this book puts forth an analysis of the operation of traction substations and of the catenary network of electrified railroads, and gives recommendations for increasing their reliability. The book is intended for technical engineering workers connected with the operation and design of electrifical railroad energy supply systems, and can also be useful for instructors and students of the higher educational institutions and auditors of the qualification-increasing schools. The chapters include: (1) Fundamental conditions for the reliability of electrified railroad energy supply systems; (2) Damage to the catenary suspension; (3) Installations for the automatic control of the current collector characteristics; (4) Damage of the catenary network induced by corrosion; (5) Protection of the catenary network from short circuit current on direct current stations; (6) Protection from short circuit currents on alternating current sections; (7) Damage at the direct current tractive substations; (8) Damage at alternating current tractive substations.
