Introduction
As part of the Tunis Light Rail electrification upgrade initiative, a new depot was constructed on the southern line to enhance daily maintenance and train dispatching efficiency. To support the depot’s increasing energy demands and to ensure operational safety, the local authority required a reliable, compact, and quickly deployable power distribution system.
