Unlike the traditional traction power supply system which enables the electrified railway traction substation to be connected to power grid in a way of phase rotation, a new generation traction power supply system without phase splits is proposed in this paper. Three key techniques used in this system have been discussed. First, a combined co-phase traction power supply system is applied at traction substations for compensating negative sequence current and eliminating phase splits at exits of substations;design method and procedure for this system are presented.Second, a new bilateral traction power supply technology is proposed to eliminate the phase split at section post and reduce the influence of equalizing current on the power grid.Meanwhile, power factor should be adjusted to ensure a proper voltage level of the traction network. Third, a segmental power supply technology of traction network is used to divide the power supply arms into several segments, and the synchronous measurement and control technology is applied to diagnose faults and their locations quickly and accurately. Thus, the fault impact can be limited to a minimum degree. In addition, the economy and reliability of the new generation traction power supply system are analyzed.
