What is the main purpose of train lighting systems?
Powering the locomotive
Providing light for passenger coaches
Controlling train speed
Operating the air brake system
Which of the following is a special requirement of train lighting systems?
High voltage supply
Constant brightness regardless of speed
Overhead power supply
Series connection of lights
In a Single Battery System, the battery is charged by:
Overhead lines
Diesel engine
Axle-driven generator
Solar panels
What is the advantage of the Double Battery Parallel Block System over the single battery system?
Lower cost
Less space required
Better voltage regulation and redundancy
Uses fewer batteries
The Modified Train Lighting System (MTLS) improves performance by:
Using solar panels
Replacing DC with AC
Including a silicon rectifier and better regulation
Removing batteries completely
In a DC dynamo, the output is regulated by:
A transformer
A voltage regulator and carbon brushes
A diode bridge
Capacitor bank
The purpose of a Silicon Blocker Rectifier (SBR) in train lighting is to:
Amplify voltage
Invert DC to AC
Prevent reverse current to the dynamo
Store electric energy
In End-on Generation (EOG) systems, power is supplied from:
Each coach individually
A generator car attached at one end
Batteries only
Solar panels
Which of the following is a key feature of Head-on Generation (HOG) system?
Requires separate generator cars
Uses locomotive alternator to power the entire train
Batteries are the only source
No rectifiers are used
Which among the following is not an advantage of Head-on Generation (HOG) over End-on Generation (EOG)?
Reduced noise
Decreased carbon emissions
Increased fuel cost
No need for generator coaches
