Abstract
This is a theoretical examination of the individual components required for the various methods of current feed from the overhead line system for the purpose of operating electric traction stock fitted with three-phase motors. Critical consideration is given to the individual components, and their mode of action is examined with respect to the effect on network, freedom from harmonics, and power factor. The article also deals with energy regeneration with electric brakes and the ancillary equipment necessary. Consideration is also given to diesel-electric traction, and the article concludes with a comparison of the individual systems.
