CLARIFICATION OF THE EFFECTS OF THE 50-60HZ SWITCHING EQUIPMENT ON THE ATC SYSTEM IN SHINKANSEN (SUPER-EXPRESS TRAIN)

While the electric current on the Tokaido Shinkansen is 60 hertz, extensions of this network are to be powered at 50 hertz. Where these routes connect, 60Hz and 50Hz sections will adjoin each other. The author studied some problems concerning power switching at such points, taking into consideration stray currents, electromagnetic induction and direct magnetic fields. This paper describes how to minimize stray and inductive currents and how to switch the feeder circuits with high reliability. Theoretical and quantitative results are included.
