Abstract :
A broadening application field for the Presidents´ Conference Committee (PCC)-type electric car has introduced new and more severe requirements in the design of its propulsion equipment. This has resulted in a new traction motor embodying the latest progress in design and manufacture and particularly suited to dynamic braking at the high operating speeds currently coming into vogue.
