Railway applications - Rolling stock - Electrical connectors, requirements and test methods

This European Standard retains EN 61984:2001 as the minimum performance requirements for railway rolling stock electrical connectors. It identifies additional terms, test methods and performance requirements for single-pole and multipole connectors with rated voltages up to 1 000 V, rated currents up to 125 A per contact and frequencies below 3 MHz used for indoor and outdoor applications in railway rolling stock. This European Standard identifies the application levels for electrical connectors based on - the severity of the service conditions in different rolling stock technologies, - the intended use of the rolling stock, - the location of the connector in the rolling stock system. This European Standard is not applicable to internal connections of electronic devices such as connectors for printed boards and rack-and-panel connectors.

Železniške naprave - Železniška vozila - Konektorji, zahteve in preskusne metode

Ta evropski standard kot najnižjo zahtevo glede zmogljivosti konektorjev železniških vozil ohranja standard EN 61984 2001.
Opredeljuje dodatne pogoje, preskusne metode in zahteve glede zmogljivosti za enopolne in večpolne konektorje z nazivnimi napetostmi do 1000 V, nazivnimi toki do 125 A na stik in frekvencami pod 3 MHz, ki se uporabljajo za notranje in zunanje naprave pri železniških vozilih.
Ta evropski standard opredeljuje ravni naprav za konektorje na podlagi
– resnosti pogojev obratovanja pri različnih tehnologijah železniških vozil,
– predvidene uporabe železniških vozil,
– namestitve konektorja v sistemu železniških vozil.
Ta evropski standard se ne uporablja za notranje povezave elektronskih naprav, kot so konektorji za tiskana vezja ter konektorji za stojala in plošče.

This European Standard was approved by CENELEC on 2011-10-10. CENELEC members are bound to comply
with the CEN/CENELEC Internal Regulations which stipulate the conditions for giving this European Standard
the status of a national standard without any alteration.

Up-to-date lists and bibliographical references concerning such national standards may be obtained on
application to the CEN-CENELEC Management Centre or to any CENELEC member.

This European Standard exists in three official versions (English, French, German). A version in any other
language made by translation under the responsibility of a CENELEC member into its own language and notified
to the CEN-CENELEC Management Centre has the same status as the official versions.

CENELEC members are the national electrotechnical committees of Austria, Belgium, Bulgaria, Croatia, Cyprus,
the Czech Republic, Denmark, Estonia, Finland, France, Germany, Greece, Hungary, Iceland, Ireland, Italy,
Latvia, Lithuania, Luxembourg, Malta, the Netherlands, Norway, Poland, Portugal, Romania, Slovakia, Slovenia,
