Title :
Traction in Europe

Abstract :
The development of electric drives in traction is strongly influenced by the historical choices in matter of supply network: frequency, voltage, connection to the main network, etc. However, the choice is made more and more on electric drives by asynchronous motors, supplied by frequency changers. It is thus the whole of the conditioning electronic system of the network which is specific to each case.
