Abstract

This article shows the study and analysis of the current automation system existing in the Brazilian subway system substations. This article also shows a proposal for the systemic integrated the automation of the subway system rectifier substations, and gains in reliability, which may be obtained in case it is implemented. These gains in reliability have been assessed by means of Markov reliability models applied to the rectifier substation automation system.
