- Traction powerstation - A traction powerstation is a power station that produces only traction current, that is, electrical current used for railways, trams, trolleybuses, or other conveyances. Pure traction power stations are rare, and there are many more power stations that generate current for other purposes, such as standard three phase AC current, in addition to traction current.
- Traction splint - A traction splint is used to treat severe bone fractures by traction along toe broken portion's length. The use of traction splints by pre-hospital care providers may reduce the pain of trauma from such fractures, and traction splints are a near-universal, although a relic, piece of ambulance equipment.
- Traction control system - A traction control system (TCS), on current production vehicles, are typically (but not necessarily) electro-hydraulic systems designed to prevent loss of traction (and therefore the control of the vehicle) when excessive throttle or steering is applied by the driver. Although similar to Electronic Stability Control systems, Traction Control systems do not have the same goal.
- American Light and Traction - American Light and Traction was founded in 1900 for the purpose for consolidating the utility industry's small, local power suppliers. By 1901, American Light and Traction owned and controlled over 40 gas producting plants, electric light and traction (streetcar) properties.
- Traction current line - A traction current line is a high voltage transmission line for the supply of railways with traction current for powering locomotives. A network of traction current lines is needed in countries where trains use single phase alternating current of a lower frequency than the public supply, so the electricity cannot easily be taken from the public electricity grid.
