Integrated System Modeling for Traction Power Systems

Network Rail owns and operates the main line railway infrastructure of Great Britain. Approximately half of the network is electrified, including a substantial DC electrified network in the South East, fed by a 33 kV HV three-phase network. Network Rail has transferred its standard system models for this HV network to ETAP. This presentation gives an overview of the use of ETAP for this system, and the challenges for the future.
