INTRODUCTION
Locomotives in indiaconsist ofelectric and
diesel locomotives. Locomotives are also
calledlocosorengines.
Anelectric locomotiveis alocomotivepowered
by electricity fromoverhead lines, an on-board
energy storage device such as a
chemicalbatteryorfuel cell.
Electricity is used to eliminate smoke and take
advantage of the high efficiency of electric
motors.
Railways first introduced to India in 1853 &
journeyed of 22 miles Between Bombay to Thane.

HISTORY
1st Electric locomotive was built by:- aScotsman,Robert
Davidson ofAberdeenin 1837 & powered byBATTERIES.
1st Electric passenger train was presented by:- Werner von
SiemensatBerlinin 1879. Driven by a 2.2kW motor &
reached a maximum speed of 13km/h.

OVERVIEW OF ELECTRIC
LOCOMOTIVE
Now a days all locos are running
through Electricity with the help
of OHE line.
Pentagraph is used to connect
the loco with OHE line.
Loco contains 2 Bogies, each
Bogie consist of 6 wheels. So
totally loco consists of 12 wheels.
Pantagraph draws 25 KV of
electricity from OHE line, which is
very high AC voltage.

 Electrical equipments generate a lot

of heat during their normal
operation.
Hence the different auxiliaries
provided for cooling and other
purposes. These locos is described
below:-

ADVANTAGES OF THREE PHASE TECHNOLOGY

It Require little maintenance.

3- drive allows regeneration and
unity power factor operation.
It improves operational efficiency
besides reduction in maintenance
efforts. The energy saving due to
regeneration and improved power
factor sizable.
28

ADVANTAGES OF ELECTRIC
LOCOMOTIVE
Electric engines do not produce much heat
and noise.
Electric engines are therefore easier to
maintain whereas the moving parts of a
diesel engine require constant maintenance.
The simple nature of the electric engine
makes them efficient and powerful.
29

ADVANTAGES OF ELECTRIC
LOCOMOTIVE
Electric engines are light weight,
constituting only motors and wheel
axles, and have almost no moving
parts.
Do Not Produce Smock.

CONCLUSION
Main Objective was to learn electric
locomotive In Railways.
I am thankful to the supporting
people of the POH Bhusawal.
Electricity is used to eliminate smoke
and take advantage of the high
efficiency of electric motors.
