Electrical System 110 Volts

The low voltage system is used in the Railway's safety systems. These include the four station/carriage doors, the passenger indicators, the 2 overspeed switches and controllers, the "dead man's pedal" and the drum winding plate switches.


Electrical System 240 Volts

The standard voltage system is used for lighting and power. There is a mains operated radio telephone linking the 2 stations, in addition to a battery backed system for use in a power failure.


Electrical System 415 Volts

The high voltage operates the 32 hp 3-phase AC motor through the Drum Controller. This is similar to the system used on trams.
