[0002] In the rail passenger and freight industry, the locomotive head of the electric locomotive must enter the power-free area of the locomotive depot for inspection after completing a certain task. The locomotive needs ground power supply to traction in the power-free area. The power supply locomotive usually adopts the sliding busbar method to supply power when moving in the power-free area. A power-taking trolley is set on the sliding busbar. After the trolley takes power, it is output to the power supply port of the locomotive through the conversion plug socket. The power supply standards of locomotives of different models and manufacturers are different. Conventional power supplies are divided into DC600V, AC380V, DC60V, and DC24V for powering the power-taking trolley. Various power supply standards have different voltages, current powers, and connection plugs. As the locomotive changes, the operator needs to constantly replace the plug. If the connection plug is inconsistent with the output power supply, it will cause an accident.
