First substation commissioned for the Swedish Railways

The protection relays are to be used for the power grids supplying the train network in Sweden.

The first AQ-R215 protection relays are now commissioned in the Swedish railway network. The AQ-R215 is specially designed for Trafikverket in Sweden and can protect 50 Hz and 16,7 Hz networks simultaneously.

 

In Autumn 2019, the Arcteq Relay local partner in Sweden Malthe Winje Power AB signed two agreements with Trafikverket. The frame agreements comprise deliveries of protection relays for 50 Hz and 16,7 Hz power grids respectively. The protection relays are to be used for the power grids supplying the train network in Sweden.

The duration of the agreement for protection relays 16,7 Hz is two years with the option of an additional two plus two years. For protection relays 50 Hz, the duration is four years with the option of two plus two additional years.
