The primary voltage of the traction transformer being 220 KV or 132 KV of 110 kV or 100 kV or 66 KV or 22 KV and no load secondary voltage being 27KV . In order to reduce the imbalance on the three-phase grid system, the two phases of the three- phase transmission line are tapped in a cyclic order for feeding the successive traction sub-stations (TSS). The distance between adjacent 198 is normally between 50 km and 80 km depending upon density of tt gradients in the section and other factors. o One terminal of the 25 kV secondary winding of the traction transformer is connected to the OHE through circuit breakerfinterrupters and the other terminal is solidly earthed and connected to the appropriate traction rail(s).. The ‘current flows through the OHE, to the locomotives and returns through the rail(s) and earth to the TSS. . In sections where booster transformers and retim conductor are provided the current retums through booster transformer ; the traction rail(s) and. partly through earth in the vicinity of TSS. Approximately midway between two adjacent TSS a dead zone known as ‘neutral section’ or ‘phase break’ is provided to separate the two sections of OHE fed by different phases. The power fed to the OHE on ‘one side of the TSS is controlled by a feeder circuit breaker while the power fed to the OHE of each track is controlled by an interrupter. In case of a fault on the OHE, the feeder circuit breaker trips to isolate the faulty OHE. A schematic diagram No. ETVPSI/702 (Mod. B) showing the general arrangement at a TSS is at Appendix -I. Nature of faults on the OHE : OHE is prone to frequent earth faults caused’ by failure of insulation or by OHE snapping and touching the rail/earth or by a piece of wire dropped by birds which connects the OHE to earth, at overline, structures/supports or by miscreant activities. : . The two sections of OHE fed by different phases are sometimes inadvertently bridged causing wrong phase coupling.+ TRESEARCH DESIGNS AND STAND! TIO!

The load cycle varies from day to day due to non-uniform pattern of traffic. An ac electric locomotive is fitted with single phase bridge connected silicon rectifier with smoothening reactor for conversion of ac to dc for feeding the de traction motors. The ripple content is in the region of 25 to 40 which introduces harmonics in the 25 kV power supply.

In big yards and loco sheds, large number of locomotives/Electricar multiple units (EMUs) stand idle with only the load of their auxiliaries drawing higher reactive power. ‘Therefore these are drawing power at low power, factor. 7 For improving power factor, fixed shunt capacitor bank with 13% series reactor are also installed at some traction sub- stations, the net KVAR rating of which is generally in the range of 2000 ~-3500 kVAR.‘RESEARCH DESIGNS AND STAND.
