National - Supply and maintenance of TEV main components
ProRail B.V. has a non-public tender for the supply and maintenance of main components in the substations that transform the high-voltage networks into 1500V DC. The assignment focuses on five components: high-voltage distribution equipment (HVI), direct current distribution equipment (GVI), rectifier (GR), and secondary connection box, while the traction transformers are a separate tender. The new agreements must contractually cover both the replacement of existing parts and the reinforcement, expansion, or new construction of substations. The tender requires a strong focus on reliability, safety, and compatibility with the existing network, as well as a clear maintenance strategy for 2nd line maintenance. Suppliers must demonstrate experience with railway and high-voltage installations, comply with relevant safety standards, and be able to operate within the specified delivery times. The assignment is intended to ensure the continuity of the train power supply and to make the infrastructure future-proof.

The traction energy for the trains is transformed via the high (alternating) voltage networks in the ProRail substations into 1500V DC. Within these substations are several components for which new agreements (hereinafter “agreements”) for development, supply, and maintenance (2nd line maintenance) must be concluded for the following components: 1. Traction transformers (this is a separate tender); 2. High-voltage distribution equipment (HVI); 3. Direct current distribution equipment (GVI); 4. Rectifier (GR); 5. Secondary connection box. The agreements serve to contractually secure the replac
