9.1 For other provision the Regulation should be refered to.Modification to <strong>Electrical</strong> overhead<br />

Distribution system at station and yards where 25kv ,ac 50Hz single phase<br />

traction is to be introduced.<br />

9.1.1 It is essential for an electrical overhead distribution system that.<br />

a) There is adequate physical clearance to the 25 kv, system so that maintenance<br />

personel do not come within 2m <strong>of</strong> nearest point at a potential <strong>of</strong> 25kv.<br />

b) Elrctro-magnetically induced (EMI) voltage in the distribution system from adjacent<br />

25kv traction current remains within safe limit, and<br />

c) Electro-statically induced discharge current due to Capacitive Coupling between 25<br />

kv system and the power distribution is within safe limit.<br />

9.1.2 If the above safety condition are not met with ,the overhead distribution system shall<br />

be modified to bring the value within safe limit.<br />

9.1.3 The safe limit for :<br />

a) Electro-magnetically induced voltage are:<br />

1) For installations to which only trained and authorised personnel<br />

have access 60V<br />

2) For installation to which public or untrained staff have access 25v<br />

b) Electro-statically induced discharge current shall not exceed 8mA<br />

9.1.4 Neutral <strong>of</strong> a 3 phase, 4 wire earthed system should be earthed at only one point,that<br />

is at the substation<br />

9.1.5. In long metallic structures such as fencing or an overbridge,the electro-magnetically<br />

induced voltage shall not exceed 25 volts.<br />

9.1.6. Formula adopted for Electro-magnetically induced voltage.<br />

Electro-magnetically induced voltage ‘E’ is given by the expression:<br />

E = 2π.Kr.Kc.M.I.L.<br />

where,<br />

E is in volts<br />

f is frequency <strong>of</strong> power supply=50Hz<br />

kr is coefficient dependent upon type <strong>of</strong> return circuit and has been empirically<br />

established by SNCF the values are given below<br />
