Suburban railways use

  • Suburban railways use 750V DC.
  • Suburban railways, which typically operate within urban or suburban areas and provide commuter service, require an efficient and reliable source of electrical power to run their trains.
  • Direct current (DC) has several advantages over alternating current (AC) for railway power systems, including simpler equipment design, lower maintenance costs, and better speed control.
  • The specific voltage used by a suburban railway's electrical power system can vary depending on several factors, such as the type of train, the track configuration, and the operating environment.
  • A voltage of 750V DC is a common standard for suburban railways in many parts of the world.
