Foreword
This Technical Specification was prepared by the Technical Committee CENELEC TC 37A,
Low voltage surge protective devices.
It also concerns the expertise of SC 9XC, Electric supply and earthing systems for public transport
equipment and ancillary apparatus (Fixed installations), of Technical Committee CENELEC TC 9X,
Electrical and electronic applications for railways.
The broad subject of overvoltage protection in d.c. traction systems need to address the approaches,
requirements and definitions of several disciplines and TC’s. Concerned European Standards are
referenced for generic definitions.
This Technical Specification reflects the common practise of overvoltage protection in the d.c. traction
community, as far as protection of equipment in the primary power supply is concerned (e.g. feeders,
overhead contact lines, return circuits, power side of rolling stock).
Therefore, definitions and approaches in this Technical Specification, covering a specific application in
line with EN 50526-1, are different for some aspects from the definitions and approaches in the
EN 61643 series.
The text of the draft was circulated for voting in accordance with the Internal Regulations, Part 2,
Subclause 11.3.3.3. and was approved by CENELEC as CLC/TS 50544 on 2009-12-25.
Attention is drawn to the possibility that some of the elements of this document may be the subject of
patent rights. CEN and CENELEC shall not be held responsible for identifying any or all such patent
rights.
The following date is proposed:
– latest date by which the existence of the CLC/TS
has to be announced at national level
(doa) 2010-06-25
1)
This Technical Specification will be withdrawn once the SC 9XC document on the same subject is
published.
