In Sweden most electric railways use 15 kV 16 + 2 ⁄ 3 Hz AC. Exceptions include: Saltsjöbanan and Roslagsbanan (1.5 kV DC), the Stockholm Metro (650 V and 750 V DC) and tramways (750 V DC). The Oresund Bridge linking Sweden and Denmark is electrified at 25 kV, Danish standard; the split is located on the Swedish side near the bridge. Only ...
Controls for the reclosers range from the original electromechanical systems to digital electronics with metering and SCADA functions. The ratings of reclosers run from 2.4–38 kV for load currents from 10–1200 A and fault currents from 1–16 kA. [7] [8] On a 3-phase circuit, a recloser is more beneficial than three separate fuse cutouts.
The "S" designation originally stood for six hundred horsepower and the "N" designation for nine hundred horsepower, although they were used for the more general designation of smaller and larger engine models after the more powerful 567 model engines replaced the Winton engines. The "C" designation stood for cast frame locomotives and the "W ...

The locomotives were originally built for the Norwegian State Railways (NSB) in 1967 to replace the NSB El 3 and NSB El 4 engines on Ofoten Line. The main task there is to pull heavy iron ore freight trains, and the El 15 is the most powerful engine which NSB has ever used.
15 kV 16 2 ⁄ 3 Hz is worse than either 3 kV DC or 25 kV 50/60 Hz because 15 kV 16 2 ⁄ 3 Hz associate poorer power to weight ratio, and useless for French TGV trainsets or Japanese bullet trains. Nordic people want to convert to 3 kV DC, while Alpine people and Mediterranean people want to convert to 25 kV AC.
Map of the high voltage power grid used for power supply of electric railways in Germany, Switzerland and Austria. Germany, Austria and Switzerland operate the largest interconnected 15 kV 16.7 Hz system, which has central generation, a special transmission network, central and decentral converter plants.
