  • Abstract
    EXACTING SPECIFICATIONS for modern railway-car power supply, together with the necessity for extreme simplicity and reduced maintenance, rendered a new type of power supply desirable. This led to the development of a motor-generator-exciter system which, together with its associated control, represents a major advance in the art of railway-car power-supply design.
