Railway applications - Fixed installations - Process, protective measures and demonstration of safety for electric traction systems
This European Standard defines the process, protective measures and demonstration of safety in accordance with EN 50126 for the conventional electric traction system of railways applications. The standard can also apply to guided mass transport systems and trolleybus systems. All these systems can be elevated, at-grade and underground. Other systems including those listed below were not assessed. For similar technology and similar hazardous scenarios the safety considerations of this standard can be applied as a guideline where applicable. - underground mine traction systems, - cranes, transportable platforms and similar transportation equipment on rails, temporary structures (e.g. exhibition structures) in so far as these are not supplied directly or via transformers from the contact line system and are not endangered by the traction power supply system, - suspended cable cars, - funicular railways, - magnetic levitated systems, - railways with inductive power with inductive contactless transmission of the energy from the electric traction power supply system to the electrically powered traction unit, - railways with buried contact line system that is required to be energised only below the train to ensure safety, This European Standard applies to conventional electric traction systems, which are new or are undergoing major changes on new or existing lines.

Introduction
This European Standard provides a code of practice (CoP) for the process, protective measures and
demonstration of safety for the conventional electric traction systems which supports the application of
EN 50126. Within this standard “safety” is used with respect to harm to people and environment. Safety in
terms of harm to assets is covered in the relevant product and application standards.
This standard includes a systems description for the generic reference system for a conventional electric
traction system (refer to Figure 3) and the related subsystems. The interfaces with respect to safety at the
system borders and the respective aspects to be coordinated are described. Based on the list of top-level
hazards and endangered groups protective measures for risk mitigation and hazard control are derived
and indications for the verification and validation procedures are given. The list of standards given in
Annex B can serve as a reference.
During the preparation of this European Standard it became obvious, that the risks associated with
conventional electric traction systems are broadly accepted. This conclusion is based on long term
experience from several European railways. The technical systems used by these European railways in
their conventional electric traction systems are equivalent to the generic reference system described in
this standard. Confidential field data that were taken into account represent more than 1 200 000 year km
operational experience. To exemplify, the equivalent would be a network size of about 80 000 km and the
operational experience laid down in traceable field data would cover a period of 15 years of service. No
fatality was reported caused by a product property or a failure of a specified function of the conventional
electric traction systems.
This standard has been developed specifically to support the realization of EN 50126 within the context of
safety for electric traction systems. It provides generic building blocks which assists the fulfilment of the
requirements of life cycle steps given in EN 50126. Product and application standards are traditionally
applied in fixed installations to ensure safety and performance in terms of e.g. reliability and cost
efficiency. Within this standard the link between existing product and application standards, technical
specification for interoperability and EN 50126 is given.
This standard complies with the principles of the life cycle modelling according to EN 50126 by tailoring
the risk assessment process. This means that this standard encompasses the entire safety process
ranging from the system description, hazards identification to the verification and validation of the
implemented protective measures according to EN 50126 and it is not just a summation of product and
application standards.
This standard has been developed so that it can also be used for assessing risks arising from technical
changes within the legal framework of the European Union.
This standard also supports the decision making regarding the assessment of changes, e.g. with respect
to the significance of changes in technologies. It includes in particular the risk acceptance principle
regarding the application of codes of practice. It also supports the application of the risk acceptance
principles similar reference systems and explicit risk estimation for electric traction systems in the
framework of EN 50126.
When applying TSIs, e.g. TSI Energy, this standard supports the demonstration of the inherent safety of
the conventional electric traction system and supports the safe integration at overall system level.
Amongst others this standard can be used as a code of practice for conventional electric traction
systems. This does not exclude consideration of other codes of practice even from other fields of
application.
The interrelation between the legal framework, the standards traditionally applied and the set of standards
confined to safety is shown in Figure 1.

1 Scope
This European Standard defines the process, protective measures and demonstration of safety in
accordance with EN 50126 for conventional electric traction systems for railways. This standard can also
be applied to guided mass transport systems and trolleybus systems. All these systems can be elevated,
at-grade and underground.
Other systems including those listed below were not assessed and therefore are outside the scope of this
European Standard:
– underground mine traction systems,
– cranes, transportable platforms and similar transportation equipment on rails, temporary structures
(e.g. exhibition structures) in so far as these are not supplied directly or via transformers from the
contact line system and are not endangered by the traction power supply system,
– suspended cable cars,
– funicular railways,
– magnetic levitated systems,
– railways with inductive power with inductive contactless transmission of the energy from the electric
traction power supply system to the electrically powered traction unit,
– railways with buried contact line system that is required to be energised only belo
