K Niekamp

Abstract

The rapid transit system of Frankfurt on the Main (West Germany) has been extended after a four-year long construction period. Although the length of the new addition is relatively low (only about 1.2 km), it now features several significant improvements. This new sector is supplied with 15 kv power at 16 2/3 Hz. Electric and mechanical equipment is described.
