A coupling rod or side rod connects the driving wheels of a locomotive.

See FS Class E.470 and Coupling rod

Current collector

A current collector (often called a "pickup") is a device used in trolleybuses, trams, electric locomotives and EMUs to carry electric power (current) from overhead lines, electric third rails, or ground-level power supplies to the electrical equipment of the vehicles.

See FS Class E.470 and Current collector

Direct current

Direct current (DC) is one-directional flow of electric charge.

See FS Class E.470 and Direct current

Driving wheel

On a steam locomotive, a driving wheel is a powered wheel which is driven by the locomotive's pistons (or turbine, in the case of a steam turbine locomotive).

See FS Class E.470 and Driving wheel

Electric locomotive

An electric locomotive is a locomotive powered by electricity from overhead lines, a third rail or on-board energy storage such as a battery or a supercapacitor.

Pantograph (transport)

A pantograph (or "pan" or "panto") is an apparatus mounted on the roof of an electric train, tram or electric bus to collect power through contact with an overhead line.

See FS Class E.470 and Pantograph (transport)

Power factor

In electrical engineering, the power factor of an AC power system is defined as the ratio of the real power absorbed by the load to the apparent power flowing in the circuit.
