Pantograph–catenary disconnection occurs quite frequently in high-speed situations. Pantograph arcing has a significant impact on the contact surfaces and power quality. This article focuses on the effect on the electrical characteristics of the four-quadrant converter of pantograph arcing. An arc model which combines Cassie’s arc model with Mayr’s arc model is built. This article mainly researches the influence of the pantograph arcing on the four-quadrant converter in different durations. Pantograph arcing leads to voltage pulse in voltage, as well as the harmonics in the current of the alternating current side. At the same time, the direct current voltage decreases when the arc occurs. Therefore, it can ultimately decrease the output torque and increase the torque pulsation of the motor.
