Note 1 SS and HMS are the same civil structure
Note 2 Failure of the OCS to the structure where rails are floating, the return path is via the MEB and OVPD is required to close to clear dc breakers.
Note 3 Failure of the OCS to the structure where rails are earthed the return path is via the MEB and the DC Bonds to clear dc breakers.

Regenerative Traction Units and Supply Points
Technical Merits of Regenerative Traction Units Reduction of heat Reduction of brake dust Reduction of tunnel maintenance Elimination of brake resistors.
Technical Merits of Regenerative System
Improved efficiency reduction in energy costs.
Disadvantages of Regenerative Systems
More capital investment in traction and supply equipment. More harmonics [medium voltage supply]. Intelligent protection system on the supply and traction. Increase stray current
dc network losses charged at 15.57% in the southern region; dc network losses charged at 10.26% for the dc network in Merseyside;
