DC traction feeder transformers are used to feed rectifiers from normal three-phase AC networks. Rectifiers supply DC current to a catenary or third rail.
Due to high currents and performance guarantees, DC traction feeder transformers are normally closely integrated with rectifiers. Therefore, they are specially designed and fitted together to match the connection of the rectifier.
