Transient of Electric railway vehicle occurs when change to another state. The duration of the transient phenomenon only takes a few second. During this time is considered, the present of short circuit current and the normal state, the energy is present in the form of a magnetic field. Recognized by the vibration of the transient voltage or transient current at witch energy is present in the field. This paper is presented the result of transient characteristics by transformer % impedance at the time of opening and closing of the main circuit Breaker on the electric railway vehicle.
