Railway applications - Railway rolling stock cables having special fire performance - Thin wall - Part 1: General requirements
EN 50306-1 specifies the general requirements applicable to the cables given in EN 50306-2, EN 50306-3 and EN 50306-4. It includes the detailed requirements for S2 sheathing materials and other components called up in the separate parts. NOTE Detailed requirements for insulation systems are given in EN 50306-2. In particular, EN 50306-1 specifies those requirements relating to fire safety which enable the cables to satisfy Hazard Level 3 of EN 45545-1 and EN 45545-2. These cables are rated for occasional thermal stresses which causes ageing equivalent to continuous operational life at a temperature of 105 °C or 90 °C. For standard cables, this is determined by the acceptance test defined in EN 50305, using accelerated long-term (5 000 h) thermal ageing indicating a 125 °C or 110 °C /20 000 h temperature index. If the customer were to require lifetime predictions, this would be demonstrated based on the temperature index of the product as supplied by the manufacturer. The maximum temperature for short circuit conditions is 160 °C based on duration of 5 s. EN 50306-1 is expected to be used in conjunction with one or more of the other parts of EN 50306.
Bahnanwendungen - Kabel und Leitungen für Schienenfahrzeuge mit verbessertem Verhalten im Brandfall - Reduzierte Isolierwanddicken - Teil 1: Allgemeine Anforderungen
Die EN 50306-1 legt die allgemeinen Anforderungen für die in den Teilen EN 50306-2, EN 50306-3 und EN 50306-4 genormten Kabel und Leitungen fest. Sie enthält die genauen Anforderungen für die Mantelmischung S2 und andere Komponenten, die in einzelnen Teilen verwendet werden. ANMERKUNG Genaue Anforderungen an Isoliersysteme sind in EN 50306-2 festgelegt. Insbesondere legt EN 50306-1 die Anforderungen fest, die die Brandsicherheit betreffen und es ermöglichen, dass Kabel und Leitungen die Gefährdungsstufe 3 von EN 45545-1 und EN 45545-2 erfüllen. Diese Kabel und Leitungen sind für gelegentliche Wärmebeanspruchung ausgelegt, die zu einer Werkstoffalterung führt, die dem des Dauerbetriebs bei 90 °C oder 105 °C entspricht. Für Standardkabel und –leitungen wird dies durch die in EN 50305 festgelegte Prüfung nachgewiesen, wobei eine beschleunigte thermische Langzeitalterung (5 000 h) verwendet wird, die einen Temperaturindex von 110 °C oder 125 °C / 20 000 h anzeigt. Würde der Kunde Lebensdauervorhersagen verlangen, würde dies anhand des vom Hersteller gelieferten Temperaturindex des Produkts demonstriert werden. Die höchste zulässige Temperatur unter Kurzschlussbedingungen, bezogen auf eine Dauer von 5 s, beträgt 160 °C. EN 50306-1 wird voraussichtlich in Verbindung mit einem oder mehreren anderen Teilen der EN 50306 verwendet werden.
Applications ferroviaires - Câbles pour matériel roulant ferroviaire ayant des performances particulières de comportement au feu - Isolation mince - Partie 1 : Exigences générales
L’EN 50306 1 définit les exigences générales relatives aux câbles figurant dans les normes EN 50306 2, EN 50306 3 et EN 50306 4. Elle comporte les exigences détaillées relatives aux matériaux de gainage S2 et autres constituants évoqués dans les parties individuelles. NOTE Les exigences détaillées relatives aux systèmes d'isolation sont données dans l’EN 50306-2. L’EN 50306-1 spécifie notamment les exigences de sécurité contre l'incendie permettant aux câbles de satisfaire au niveau de risque 3 de l’EN 45545-1 et de l’EN 45545-2. Ces câbles sont conçus pour résister à des contraintes thermiques occasionnelles provoquant un vieillissement thermique équivalent à celui résultant d’un fonctionnement continu à 90 °C. Pour les câbles normalisés, cette température est déterminée par l’essai d’acceptation décrit dans l’EN 50305, qui consiste à appliquer un vieillissement thermique accéléré de longue durée (5 000 h) indiquant un indice de température de 125 °C ou de 110 °C/20 000 h. Si le client exigeait des prédictions de durée de vie, ces prédictions seraient fondées sur l’indice de température du produit tel que fourni par le fabricant. La température maximale admissible en cas de court-circuit est de 160 °C pendant 5 s. L’EN 50306-1 est prévue pour être utilisée conjointement avec une ou plusieurs des autres parties de l’EN 50306.

Introduction
The railway industry is generally concerned with the movement of people as well as goods. It is
therefore essential that a high level of safety is achieved, even when failures occur which could
involve fire, howsoever caused, affecting railway rolling stock.
Hence it is necessary to provide cables for use in railway environments which minimize the hazard to
people when a fire could damage the cable, irrespective of whether the fire is caused by an external
source or from within the electrical system.
The EN 50306 series specifies cables which, in the event of fire will limit the risk to people and
improve the safety on railways in general. It covers cables with thin wall thickness of both insulation
and sheath, based on halogen free materials, for use in railway rolling stock. There is provision for
screening in some of the parts and also for a standard wall thickness sheath. In the event of a fire
affecting cables to the EN 50306 series they will have a limited flame spread and limited emission of
toxic gases. In addition these cables when burnt, produce limited amounts of smoke. This last
characteristic will minimize loss of visibility in the event of a fire and will aid reduced evacuation times.
The objectives of this standard are:
— to standardize cables that are safe and reliable when properly used;
— to state the characteristics, performance, and construction requirements directly or indirectly
bearing on safety;
— to specify methods for checking conformity with these requirements.
The EN 50306 series, which covers a range of cables of rated voltage U = 300V with conductor sizes
2 2
0,5 mm up to 2,5 mm , is divided into 4 parts:
