NETZVERHALTEN VON WECHSELSTROM-TRIEBFAHRZEUGEN MIT MEHRFACH-FOLGESTEUERUNGEN IM STROMICHTERSPARSCHALTUNG

A report submitted at the 14th meeting dealing with "Modern railway stock", held in Graz. The assembly in question was designed by Brown Boveri, in order to: 1. Suppress, in the supply system, the high-frequency harmonics, as well as their induced effects causing interference on the lines carrying weak current. 2. Suppress the low-frequency harmonics capable of having an effect on the track circuits. 3. Improve the power factor. This assembly was tested on an RC 4/4 locomotive No. 161. The report contains a theory covering this assembly, as well as details, set out in the very numerous diagrams, of the results obtained during tests, and conclusions concerning the conditions under which the desired effects can be obtained.
