I think Indian Railways can install HOG System(Head On Generation System) in their existing Normal WAP -7 Locomotives of Various Sheds & Zones(Non HOG WAP-7s) as per requirement. If this is done then it won't be required to produce New HOG WAP-7 all the Time & it will be COST Effective also as Indian Railways is concerned. Now HOG WAP-7 has great demand so IR can adopt this Procedure to equip their Normal WAP-7 with HOG System as per requirement which will avoid the Time of Commissioning of New HOG WAP-7 as existing Normal WAP-7 can easily be commissioned after Installation of HOG system in the same.

For WAP5, CLW is in the process of floating development tender. As there were space constraints inside WAP5, IR had to combine traction converter and HOG converter. Soon, P5 will be getting 7775 kVA double winding transformers, just like WAP7.
