This paper suggest away to maintain constant power through trolley wire by transferring increased line voltage to the AC main line while changing the mode from Converter(Forward) to Inverter(Reverse) when the line voltage is increased due to regenerative power when the train stops, This paper suggests a Double Converter DC substation that can create regenerative power when the train stops reusable. We also proposed using a simulation tool, the optimal Thyrister firing angle that can minimize the undershoot and overshoot that occurs when transferring the mode from Converter to Inverter for quality improvement of DC voltage in the Double Converter in the DC substation from the Busan Urban Subway.

DC substation of urban transit supplies a suitable DC power on electricity vehicles by being supplied from KEPCO. DC substation is verified electrical safety of system through pre-operation inspection on electrical installations to be supplied power from KEPCO. However, because test items and method for DC traction system are unprepared on pre-operation inspection, the general safety and performance verification of DC traction system are very insufficient. Therefore this paper analyze the overseas test examples such as factory equipment tests, factory combined tests and railway tests for the safety and performance verification of DC traction system and present a suitable test items and test standard in domestic.

In this study we examined the method to estimate numerically the amount of the regenerated power and the excess regenerated power produced in the DC electric power supply system for the urban light rail transit system. And their economic feasibilities are also studied. For this study DC electric power supply system is simulated and the numerical analysis of the regenerated power and the excess regenerated power are conducted. The study result on the sample system shows that the facility to consume the excess regenerated power or the inverting equipment to reuse the excess regenerated power in the electric substation is feasible economically.
