Road traffic signal systems

This European Standard specifies requirements for Road Traffic Signal Systems, including their development, design, testing, installation and maintenance. In particular, it forms the electrotechnical part of the following two standards issued by CEN: – EN 12368, Traffic control equipment ― Signal heads – EN 12675, Traffic signal controllers ― Functional safety requirements Each of these standards above should be used with this standard either singly or together to define an operational equipment or system. This should be achieved by using the electrotechnical methods and testing defined in this standard. Where Road Traffic Signal Systems are to be used with other systems, e.g. public lighting or railway signalling and communication, this standard should comply with the other respective standard to ensure that overall safety is not compromised. Only permanently or temporarily installed Road Traffic Signal Systems are included in this standard. Central office and portable signalling systems are not covered.

Straßenverkehrs-Signalanlagen

Diese Europäische Norm legt Anforderungen für Straßenverkehrs-Signalanlagen fest, einschließlich ihrer Entwicklung, Konstruktion, Prüfung, Errichtung und Instandhaltung. Insbesondere bildet sie den elektrotechnischen Teil der folgenden zwei von CEN herausgegebenen Normen: – EN 12368, Anlagen zur Verkehrssteuerung – Signalleuchten; – EN 12675, Steuergeräte für Lichtsignalanlagen – Funktionale Sicherheitsanforderungen. Jede der angegebenen Normen muss mit dieser Norm entweder einzeln oder zusammen angewendet werden, um ein betriebsfähiges Gerät oder eine betriebsfähige Anlage festzulegen. Dazu müssen die in der vorliegenden Norm festgelegten elektrotechnischen Methoden und Prüfungen angewendet werden. Wenn Straßenverkehrs-Signalanlagen in Verbindung mit anderen Anlagen betrieben werden, z. B. Straßen¬beleuchtung oder Eisenbahnsignal- und kommunikationstechnik, müssen die Anforderungen dieser Norm mit den entsprechenden Normen übereinstimmen, damit die Sicherheit des Gesamtsystems nicht beeinträchtigt wird. Die vorliegende Norm gilt nur für fest oder vorübergehend errichtete Straßenverkehrs-Signalanlagen. Zentrale und ortsveränderliche Signalanlagen werden nicht behandelt.

Systèmes de signaux de circulation routière

La présente Norme Européenne définit les exigences pour les systèmes de signaux de circulation routière, et comprend leur étude, leur conception, leurs essais, leur installation et leur maintenance. En particulier, elle constitue la partie électrotechnique des deux normes suivantes publiées par le CEN: – EN 12368, Equipement de régulation du trafic ― Signaux – EN 12675, Contrôleurs de signaux de circulation routière ― Exigences de sécurité fonctionnelle Il convient que chacune des normes ci-dessus soit utilisée avec la présente norme, soit individuellement soit ensemble, pour définir un équipement ou un système opérationnel. Pour ce faire, il convient d’utiliser les méthodes et essais électrotechniques définis dans la présente norme. Lorsque les systèmes de signaux de circulation routière sont utilisés avec d’autres systèmes tels que ceux d’éclairage public, de signalisation ferroviaire et de télécommunications, il convient que cette norme soit conforme à l’autre norme correspondante afin d’assurer que la sécurité de l’ensemble ne soit pas compromise. Seuls les systèmes de signaux de circulation routière installés de façon permanente ou temporaire sont compris dans la présente norme. Les postes centraux et les systèmes de signalisation portables ne sont pas couverts.

Sistemi prometne signalizacije

Ta evropski standard določa zahteve za sisteme prometne signalizacije, vključno z njihovim razvojem, načrtovanjem, preskušanjem, vgradnjo in vzdrževanjem.
Predvsem tvori elektrotehnični del naslednjih dveh standardov, ki jih je izdal CEN:
- EN 12368, oprema za nadzor prometa – signalne glave,
- EN 12675, nadzorniki prometnih signalov – zahteve za funkcionalno varnost.
Vsak od zgornjih standardov se mora uporabljati s tem standardom, posamično ali skupaj, za določanje delovne opreme ali sistema. To naj se doseže z uporabo elektrotehničnih metod in preskušanja, določenega v tem standardu.
Kjer se sistemi prometne signalizacije uporabljajo z drugimi sistemi, kot so npr. javna razsvetljava, železniška signalizacija in komunikacija, mora biti ta standard v skladu z drugim tovrstnim standardom, da zagotovi celotno varnost.
V ta standard so vključeni samo stalni ali začasno postavljeni sistemi prometne signalizacije. Osrednji pisarniški in prenosni signalni sistemi niso zajeti.
