UNLOADING OF THE RAILROAD NETWORK BY THE SINGLE-PHASE STATIC CONVERTER WITH 2-C-LUB CIRCUIT

BAHNNETZENTLASTUNG DURCH EINPHASEN-STROMRICHTER MIT 2-C-LUB- SCHALTUNG

2-C-LUB is a quenching unsymmetrical bridge circuit with two quenching capacitors. Results of test drives with the locomotive 181,208 are reported for two cases. In one, the 2-C-LUB circuit was incorporated while in the other it was left out. These test runs have shown that a considerable reduction of network loading was realized by the incorporation of the 2-C-LUB circuit because of the large decrease of the effective value of the overcurrent and the resultant improvement of the power factor.
