Abstract
DC railway systems have now crystallised into the three major categories of 750V, 1500V and 3000V, the latter being applied to main-line systems and the first two mainly to urban masstransit or light-rail systems. This article reviews the significance of choice of transformer commutating reactance and highlights its importance in the design of DC substation convertors
