Features of the effect of increased reverse traction currents on rail circuits and continuous automatic locomotive signaling

Abstrak

The features of the influence of increased reverse traction currents on rail circuits and continuous automatic locomotive signaling are considered. It is shown that the current norms for the relative magnitude of the asymmetry of the traction current in the rail strands of the rail line were calculated for maximum reverse traction currents. When moving heavy-duty trains, especially in mountainous areas, reverse alternating traction currents can be significantly greater, so their effect on the ALS channels remains unclear.
