Abstract

See full text

An arrangement for providing a plurality of vehicles, in particular track bound vehicles, with electric energy, includes an electric conductor arrangement for producing alternating electromagnetic fields and for thereby transferring electromagnetic energy to the vehicles. The conductor arrangement includes a plurality of consecutive segments, wherein each segment comprises at least one phase line for carrying a phase of an alternating current. Corresponding phase lines of neighbouring consecutive segments are connected in series to each other. The arrangement further includes a direct current power supply line for supplying electric energy to the segments. A switching device for producing the alternating current of the conductor arrangement from the current carried by the, power supply line is connected to each interface between two neighbouring consecutive segments. The arrangement also includes a control device for controlling the operation of the switching devices.
