Seats over switches.

The most innovative concept for energy distribution in rail vehicles

Passenger capacity, space efficiency and economic efficiency are among the most important factors in modern vehicle concepts. At the same time, classic control cabinet architectures take up valuable space on the train.

The result:
More usable space. More flexibility.
More potential for additional seats.

At InnoTrans, E-T-A and NewTec are presenting a new concept for energy distribution in rolling stock: an intelligent, electronic power distribution that rethinks this topic and significantly expands vehicle architecture options.

What becomes possible when the control cabinet is significantly smaller?

Every square meter counts.

In passenger transport in particular, optimal use of available space is decisive for capacity, comfort and efficiency.

 

Our vision is energy distribution that is no longer characterized by central control cabinet structures, but by intelligent, networked and modular systems.

 

This creates new opportunities for:

  • additional seating capacity
  • more flexible interior concepts
  • more efficient vehicle layouts
  • future-proof platform architectures

More than just power distribution

This new concept combines electronic protection technology, intelligent software and modern communication architectures into an integrated platform.

 

In addition to the potential for saving space, vehicle manufacturers benefit from:

  • More transparency: real-time information about loads and system states
  • More availability: early detection of fault conditions and support for condition-based maintenance
  • More flexibility: modular architecture for different vehicle platforms and requirements
  • More future security: Safety and security concepts have already been considered at architectural level
