Re: How Do AC Motors Provide DC Power During Regenerative Braking?

. Apparently the newer LIRR trains have bidirectional converters, which act as both rectifiers and inverters.

Okay, that's interesting, so one component does 2 jobs. So next question does each car have its own bidirectional inverter? And if such an inverter fails, how does that affect the car's operation?
