#600V
Nearly complete! Weathering complete even down to bird droppings on the cab. One of my favorite details I added was researching the locations of "danger 600V" and "engine start/fire extinguisher" panels and adding decals.

C&NW as a third rail powered network, à la the LIRR and NYC. Or as a NH&H style 11000v AC

I particularly enjoy that it's rated to 600V

Shoutout to my first job as a streetcar conductor (no, really) that time we were working on one of our historic cars when something managed to short in the control stand (GE K-35, AIR), momentarily blasting 600v DC at full amperage directly to the traction motors

Do appreciate the last fucking idiots leaving this 600v wire like this in a receptacle.

Substations? Nah. On Paul Smith's Electric RR, the train was the substation!

Hooked up to 5200V AC catenary, his interurban was powered by an ONBOARD SUBSTATION that converted AC to 600V DC! From 1906 to 1932, this crude loud beast shuttling visitors to and from his hotel deep in the Adirondacks.

There is also a real training gap for the experienced auto mechanics out there. it's going to narrow, but legit a lot of the old dudes don't want to poke around in 600v power because they're not electricians.

Die Bremer Straßenbahn AG hat angekündigt, nach der Modernisierung und Neubau diverser Gleichrichterwerke, die Fahrspannung von 600V auf 750V anzuheben 👀

Yo estoy al alcance de masticar uno a 600V

This issue is extremely in the weeds and only EV nerds even know it exists, but the Tesla connector's biggest flaw was that it didn't have sufficient clearance on the DC pins for high voltage (generally >600V) support.

Rather than fix it, they just decided more current is more better.

I too like to leave random open 600v system wires in the snow without indicating if they're live or not.

For instance, my car requires at least 600V to charge. To allow it to use older, 400V-class equipment Hyundai very cleverly uses the rear motor inverter as a buck converter to boost voltage, but it's limited to about ~85kw instead of the ~240kW my car can accept on a native 800V charger.

On October 8th, 1938, the first "Red Train" ran over the SF Bay Bridge!

Packed with company officials, two Red Trains tested the Bridge's new 1200V catenary. Lacking a track connection to the Bridge, Key System #1000 (a former SP loco) towed the two cars over 600V territory until the bridge.

Poking around the guts of this 600v 3 phase battery charger. Something it tripping the anti arc protection.

600V?

i had a customer once that survived 600v. turned his hair grey and apparently changed his personality a bunch

In Trossingen Bahnhof wechsle ich auf einen andern RS1 nach Trossingen Stadt. Die Strecke wäre eigentlich elektrifiziert, da es sich aber um eine Elektrifizierungsinsel mit exotischen 600V Gleichspannung handelt, wird bis zur Elektrifizierung der übergeordneten Strecke hier gedieselt.

Zet daar 600V op en dan lukt het wel!

I've been watching $TXN. Texas Instruments focuses on BCD/HV mixed-signal on 65-28nm, GaN power (200-600V) and PMIC IP. Mature nodes yield superior analog matching, better perf/W. Market misprices GaN.

Ich verwende seit 10 Jahren dieses 🤷‍♂️
Hat mich noch nie im Stich gelassen. Kannst du auch Temp mit messen.

Ich glaube, der BigClve hatte letztes Jahr ein gutes kleines vorgestellt. Find’s jetzt nicht.

Oh also:

Overhead is cheaper/easier/safer than third rail, DC is fine given the existing 600V network they can piggyback off of (although building it to 25kV AC spec would not be an entirely bad idea).

If I am not mistaken, it's the only spot in Tokyo where you can see trainlines with 1500V DC OCS lines near a trainline with 600V DC 3rd rail with a cut-and-cover construction method. The Toden Arakawa Line is also 600V DC but it's doesn't go through a cut-and-cover subway tunnel, so yeah
