Abstract :
Flashing is one of the important considerations in the manufacture and operation of electric equipment for diesel-electric locomotives. Its importance has increased because of the large number of high-speed and high-powered road locomotives which have been put in service during the past few years. Minimization of these effects can be had by a better understanding of the basic causes of flashing.
