Electric traction makes things easier and safer. They bring down the distance and time and break the barriers of time and space. Electric traction is very economical, easy and safe. They can largely opt for vehicles, elevators etc.
Electric traction vehicles include general-purpose electrical locomotives, electro-motor trains for city and intercity, shunting locomotives, industrial locomotives, mine locomotives, dc operated tramcars, low floor tramcars with asynchronous induction drives etc. These vehicles use wide range of traction equipment like dc traction motors, induction traction motors, locomotive transformers, main drive rectifiers, multi-system voltage converters for train cars, induction tramcar drive converters, computer control units for locomotives, computer control units for tramcars etc.
Traction motors can use both ac/dc currents with suitable control electronics. They are operating in high voltage current. They can widely used for vehicles, elevators, locomotives etc.
