Even if one motor fails down, in IGBT mode, the rest 5 or 4 of them will continuing working depending on the instructions passed by the chip.
The fail down will b detected by the chip installed on board n the loco pilot needs to troubleshoot these on the spot. On major failure, the loco will b rebooted n if no response comes back, then nearest head will b contacted.

TM has around 850 kW so there are almost 6 TM's, n depending on the acceleration, necessary power will b taken from above n supplied.
Having a massive regeneration, the same power will b resent back to above on braking.
