Maintenance and servicing to the EMU, in order to guarantee the operation safety, often need to stop high voltage power supply, using the ground power supply. As a result, need to provide a safe, stable and reliable ground auxiliary power supply for the EMU, ensure the normal maintenance, servicing and operation of various types of EMU. To this end, this paper based on the deployment of the ministry of railways and the requirements for configuration of ground power supply to the EMU, Analyze requirements of the auxiliary power supply system to the CRH2 EMU, on this basis, design the auxiliary power supply and its control system.

A high-reliability auxiliary power supply (APS) for gate drive circuits is crucial to utilization of emerging medium voltage (MV ≥ 10 kV) Silicon Carbide (SiC) devices in high voltage applications. This paper proposes an active voltage divider based APS with lower arm voltage regulation. The proposed APS circuit is targeting the application of MV SiC devices in modular multilevel converters (MMCs). It can harvest energy from a MV (≥ 7 kV) dc bus to provide an isolated low voltage output to gate drive circuits of MV SiC devices. Compared to existing APS solutions, it can achieve a high input voltage (≥ 7 kV) with simple circuit structure and control scheme. In this paper, the working principle of the proposed APS is presented and a circuit design example is shown. A circuit prototype with 7 kV input and 15 V/10 W output has been built and tested to verify the effectiveness of the proposed solution.
