Abstract
An electrical power supply system for an electrically propelled vehicle provided with a traction unit and an electrical connector and moving along a circulation rail includes an external power supply zone having a supply line extending along the circulation rail for connection with the electrical connector, and an autonomous power supply zone, located after the external power supply zone along the circulation rail. The supply line includes a main section. The supply line includes a terminal section, extending along the circulation rail in the external power supply zone at least between a first end of the main section and the autonomous power supply zone, for connection with the electrical connector, and a diode, electrically connecting the first end of the main section and a second end of the terminal section and designed to let an electrical current pass through from the main section to the terminal section.
