Introduction:-
• Driving forward of a vehicle is called traction and system which employs this type of
mechanism is called traction systems.
SEMIINAR PRESENTATION 2
Electric traction systems:-
• Electric traction is meant for locomotion in which the driving(tractive) force is obtained from electric motors(called
as traction motors).
• It involves utilization of electric power for systems i.e. for railways, trams ,trolleys etc.
• For traction purposes mostly 3 phase induction motors and d.c.series motors are used and both have high starting
torque, prevailing requirement for the high speed acceleration
SEMIINAR PRESENTATION 3
Supply Systems of Electric Traction:-
There are four types of track electrification systems:-
•Single phase AC
traction system
•Three phase AC
traction system
•Composite traction
system
SEMIINAR PRESENTATION 4
DC traction system:-
SEMIINAR PRESENTATION 5
Why DC series motors?
SEMIINAR PRESENTATION 6
Single phase AC traction system:-
• 15-25 kv AT 16.7/25Hz
• Stepped down to 300-400V
• AC series motors used
SEMIINAR PRESENTATION 7
Why low frequency?
• 𝑋𝑙 = 2π𝑓𝑙
hence 𝑓
Reactance drop
So distance between substations increases.
• Low interfernce

Current collector:-
• Current from the overhead wire is collected with the help of sliding contact collector mounted on the roof of
the vehicle.
• Three types:-
1.Trolley collector
2.Bow collector
3. Pantograph collector

1. Trolley collector :- 2. Bow collector :-
• Uses light metal strip or bow for current
• Used for tramways and trolley buses , held in contact with
collection.
wire by a spring.
• Speed for 120kmph and higher.
• Suitable for low speeds upto 32kmph. • Not suitable for railway work.
