SVBX Traction Power Components

 2 High Voltage Substation  6 Traction Power Substations

– Transformer-Rectifier units step down to 1000 V dc – 34.5 kV, 1000 V dc Breakers – DC Cables feed 1000 V dc Contract Rail – Running Rail serves as the return

 Contact Rail (3rd Rail) provides power to BART

TRACK CIRCUITS (BLOCKS)

  • Length varies by location, 40-1100 feet.
  • Current Track Circuits
  • Use both rails in a current loop
  • Delimited by current shunts
  • Voltage Track Circuits
  • Use a single track and return conductor
  • Delimited by insulated joints

Speed Control

  • Signals carried through rails at Hundreds of mA
  • 4 Audio Frequency pairs between 5 and 10 kHz
  • 8 speed codes: 0, 6, 18, 27, 36, 50, 70, 80 Mph
