The paper deals the problem of the reverse traction current's asymmetry at the AC electrified railways. The features of return traction current system’s operation under conditions of cold climate are considered. The goal of work is to determinate value of return traction current asymmetry coefficient for cold climate regions operating AC electrified railways. To achieve the goal the methods of scientific analysis, imitation modelling, experimental study are used. Types and rationing of return traction current asymmetry are accented. The return traction current system model is created in Multisim 12.0 software for analyse the degree of various factors influence on the return traction current's asymmetry. Main influencing factors for asymmetry coefficient in cold climate regions as a traction current value and catenary tower resistance are considered. The calculated graphic dependences of the asymmetry coefficient as a function of the traction current and the catenary tower resistance are given. Algorithm for identifying the critical zones (hazardous areas) by graphical dependencies and predicting the system's predicament states is described.
