Abstract :
Power quality phenomena originated in power distribution systems impact on the electrical power supply system of railway systems, such as the tramway, and in the same way, power electronics used in the traction system impacts on the power quality service of the distribution system. This paper presents a study of the main power quality phenomena involved in the interaction between the power distribution system and the tramway´s power supply system. In addition, the paper presents an alternative method to study the PQ phenomena using time simulations of power demand of a set of trains in a tramway system.
