 Author(s)   S. Schalckens 
 Abstract   The paper describes the new testing platform that has been build to perform tests on DC-traction motors under various load conditions (current and speed regulation). The electrical scheme is based on the back-to-back coupling of two identical motors. The motors under test are traction motors of the metro cars of the Brussels Metro (STIB). The testing equipment is now in use since more than two years in the metro workshop at STIB (Bruxelles). In the first part of the paper the general working principles and the possibilities of the testing platform are explained. The second part gives an overview of the results that have been obtained during the last two years.
