Currently, we are bidding for Semi High Speed Rail projects across India. The position of Chief Power Supply and Traction System Expert is the key position in these BIDs.
System Design and Architecture: Lead the detailed engineering and design for the entire Traction Power Supply (TPS) system. This includes determining the optimal location, sizing, and configuration of Traction Sub-Stations (TSS), Sectioning Posts (SP), and Sub-Sectioning Posts (SSP), ensuring power quality and redundancy.
Overhead Equipment (OHE) Design: Be responsible for the complete design, specification, and installation methodology of the Overhead Electrification (OHE) system (e.g., 25 kV AC) to ensure dynamic performance, current collection stability, and pantograph-catenary interaction meets the requirements of semi-high-speed train operation.
Power System Simulation and Compliance: Conduct or review load flow and short-circuit simulations to verify that the system design meets all maximum and minimum voltage requirements under normal and emergency operating conditions (N-1 or N-2 failures) and complies with national and international railway standards.
Interface and SCADA Integration: Manage the technical interfaces between the TPS/OHE system and other railway disciplines, particularly Signaling (for electromagnetic compatibility - EMC) and the SCADA (Supervisory Control and Data Acquisition) system for remote control and monitoring of the entire electrical network.
Quality Assurance, Testing, and Commissioning: Define and oversee the rigorous testing and commissioning program for all electrical assets, including factory acceptance tests (FAT), site acceptance tests (SAT), and integrated testing to ensure safety and reliable operation before revenue service.
Safety and Earthing/Bonding: Ensure the implementation of a comprehensive earthing and bonding system throughout the corridor to guarantee safety against electric shock and effectively manage return current, stray current, and electromagnetic interference (EMI).
We commit to put people who join us at the heart of improving transportation and urban infrastructure efficiency. As we are growing, this is time to be a part of this challenging adventure. It’s not a job - it’s a career!
