overhead to the system vs overhead in the system

Both phrases are commonly used in English, but they have slightly different meanings. 'Overhead to the system' implies that the overhead is being added to the system from an external source, while 'overhead in the system' suggests that the overhead is already present within the system.

overhead to the system

This phrase is correct and commonly used in English.

This phrase is used when referring to additional overhead being imposed on the system from an external source.
  • Pantographs transmit electrical energy from the overhead contact line system to the train on which they are installed.
  • The Directive 2008/57/EC also foresees that the current collectors (pantographs), which transmit electrical energy from the overhead contact line system to the vehicle, are in the rolling stock subsystem.
  • Mean contact force and interaction performance of the overhead line/pantograph system
  • an overhead system of rails for the later handling of the meat;
  • Compliance of the overhead contact line system with infrastructure gauge
  • Maintenance of power supply and overhead contact line system
  • Protective provisions of overhead contact line system
  • Current capacity of the overhead contact line system
  • The overhead contact line system is also equipped with manually or remotely controlled disconnectors which are required to isolate sections or groups of the overhead contact line system according to operational necessity.
  • The electrification system, overhead lines and current collectors.
  • The electrification system and overhead lines.
  • Subtract cost from our percentage, but we still get an extra two points for system overhead.
  • Test results from a similar overhead contact line system may be used as a basis for conformity assessment.
  • Feeder lines are part of the overhead contact line system;
  • This shall be achieved by sectioning overhead contact line system into supply sections and the installation of redundant equipment in substations.
  • A design study shall be undertaken to confirm that the overhead contact line system complies with the specified requirements.
  • The Infrastructure Register shall contain information on protection arrangements of the overhead contact line system (see Annex D) to permit the High Speed Rolling Stock subsystem to demonstrate compatibility.
  • Compliance of the overhead contact line system with infrastructure gauge (4.2.10)
  • Protective provisions of overhead contact line system (4.7.3)
  • For rigid components such as section insulators in overhead contact line systems, the contact force can increase up to a maximum of 350 N.

Alternatives:

  • overhead on the system
  • overhead for the system
  • overhead affecting the system
