An overhead catenary system (OCS), often called catenary or simply overhead wires, is a system of electrical wires and associated support structures used to supply electricity to electric vehicles, particularly trains and trams. The term "catenary" refers to the shape of the overhead wire, which is often a parabolic curve that resembles a chain hanging between two points. The OCS is commonly used in various transportation systems, such as railways, light rail, trams, and trolleybuses. Increasing urbanization has led to increased public transportation requirements significantly fueled investments in urban transit systems such as metros and tramways that rely on overhead catenary systems for power supply. Governments worldwide prioritize energy-efficient modes of transport to reduce greenhouse gas emissions from traditional combustion engine-based vehicles which significantly drives demand for advanced overhead catenary systems. However, installing overhead catenary systems requires significant capital investments in infrastructure development, limiting its adoption in certain regions with budget constraints. Innovations in materials technology and rising investment in upgrading and expanding rail infrastructure to meet the growing demand for efficient transportation systems have further fueled the market landscape.

Train Type: High-speed rail extensively using OCS due to having the capability of handling high voltages and currents due to increased speeds
High-speed rail systems prioritize speed and efficiency in long-distance travel between cities or regions. The OCS must be capable of handling high voltages and currents to accommodate these greater speeds. Light rail systems serve urban areas with frequent stops and lower speeds than high-speed rails. The emphasis here is on energy efficiency and seamless integration within urban landscapes. Metro systems operate within densely populated urban areas and require high durability and reliability OCS to withstand heavy passenger loads.

Component: High adoption of droppers to maintain the stability of the overhead catenary system
A cantilever is a structural component in an overhead catenary system responsible for supporting the contact and catenary wire at specific intervals. It is vital for maintaining proper tension and ensuring optimal system performance. Catenary wire plays a crucial role in supporting the contact wire at a consistent height from the ground while managing mechanical forces exerted by trains passing beneath it. Contact wire is a critical component that directly interfaces with pantographs on electric trains to supply power from the overhead lines. The material choice can impact energy transfer efficiency and lifespan; copper and copper-silver alloys are highly favored due to their excellent electrical conductivity properties. Droppers are essential components that connect the catenary wire to the contact wire, ensuring constant distance and electrical separation between them, and also play a critical role in helping the strength of the overhead catenary system. Insulators electrically isolate various overhead catenary system components from one another to prevent short circuits and ensure safe operation.

Voltage: penetration of high-voltage OCS owing to its high-speed rail networks and long-distance freight lines
High-voltage overhead catenary systems are typically used in high-speed rail networks and long-distance freight lines due to their ability to deliver greater power over long distances with minimal energy loss. High voltage OCS are preferred for their efficiency in reducing transmission losses, which leads to lower operating costs and better environmental performance. Medium voltage OCS cater mainly to urban transport systems such as subways, metros, and light-rail transit networks and offer a balance between capacity and complexity that makes them suitable for densely populated urban areas requiring frequent stops with relatively short distances between stations. Low voltage OCS are commonly found in tramways, and heritage railways are often preferred for their simplicity and affordability in terms of installation and maintenance costs while still providing adequate power for short-distance travel at lower speeds.

Type: Compound catenary wires offer superior mechanical stability and are highly used in high-speed rail applications
In compound catenary wire systems, multiple wires are combined to form the main catenary wire, which supports a contact wire. This design offers enhanced mechanical stability and strength compared to simple catenaries. Compound systems can withstand higher wind loads and maintain consistent contact with pantographs even at high speeds. As such, these systems are preferred for high-speed railways and heavy freight routes where reliability is crucial. A simple catenary wire system employs a single main support cable from which droppers suspend the contact wire. Simple designs are more cost-effective than compound ones due to their reduced complexity and material consumption, making them suitable for urban tramways or short-distance regional railway routes with moderate speeds. Stitched catenary wire systems involve interweaving or stitching two parallel contact wires at regular intervals to form a single composite wire. This design offers increased contact surface area, which helps reduce wear on pantographs and enhances electrical conductivity—beneficial for energy efficiency. Stitched designs are particularly well-suited for high-power electric locomotives operating on mixed traffic lines or mountain railways where energy demands might be higher due to challenging terrains.
