neutral  GaryG: I saw that too but couldn't find this phrase in Google at all; "high-voltage" is an alternative (although "high-voltage contact system" isn't found in Google either!)

  -> That's odd, I found a lot on Google, mostly without the hyphen but one or two with. High-voltage is not necessarily the same as high-current.
agree  Vassyl Trylis: heavy- and high-current both are very popular. In Google too.

  -> Thank you.
agree  mk_lab: or high-current

  -> Thank you. Yes, high-current would do too.
