FOREWORD
1) The International Electrotechnical Commission (IEC) is a worldwide organization for standardization comprising
all national electrotechnical committees (IEC National Committees). The object of IEC is to promote
international co-operation on all questions concerning standardization in the electrical and electronic fields. To
this end and in addition to other activities, IEC publishes International Standards, Technical Specifications,
Technical Reports, Publicly Available Specifications (PAS) and Guides (hereafter referred to as “IEC
Publication(s)”). Their preparation is entrusted to technical committees; any IEC National Committee interested
in the subject dealt with may participate in this preparatory work. International, governmental and non-
governmental organizations liaising with the IEC also participate in this preparation. IEC collaborates closely
with the International Organization for Standardization (ISO) in accordance with conditions determined by
agreement between the two organizations.
2) The formal decisions or agreements of IEC on technical matters express, as nearly as possible, an international
consensus of opinion on the relevant subjects since each technical committee has representation from all
interested IEC National Committees.
3) IEC Publications have the form of recommendations for international use and are accepted by IEC National
Committees in that sense. While all reasonable efforts are made to ensure that the technical content of IEC
Publications is accurate, IEC cannot be held responsible for the way in which they are used or for any
misinterpretation by any end user.
4) In order to promote international uniformity, IEC National Committees undertake to apply IEC Publications
transparently to the maximum extent possible in their national and regional publications. Any divergence
between any IEC Publication and the corresponding national or regional publication shall be clearly indicated in
the latter.
5) IEC itself does not provide any attestation of conformity. Independent certification bodies provide conformity
assessment services and, in some areas, access to IEC marks of conformity. IEC is not responsible for any
services carried out by independent certification bodies.
6) All users should ensure that they have the latest edition of this publication.
7) No liability shall attach to IEC or its directors, employees, servants or agents including individual experts and
members of its technical committees and IEC National Committees for any personal injury, property damage or
other damage of any nature whatsoever, whether direct or indirect, or for costs (including legal fees) and
expenses arising out of the publication, use of, or reliance upon, this IEC Publication or any other IEC
Publications.
8) Attention is drawn to the Normative references cited in this publication. Use of the referenced publications is
indispensable for the correct application of this publication.
9) Attention is drawn to the possibility that some of the elements of this IEC Publication may be the subject of
patent rights. IEC shall not be held responsible for identifying any or all such patent rights.
The main task of IEC technical committees is to prepare International Standards. However, a
technical committee may propose the publication of a technical report when it has collected
data of a different kind from that which is normally published as an International Standard, for
example "state of the art".
IEC 62267-2, which is a technical report, has been prepared by IEC technical committee 9:
Electrical equipment and systems for railways.

INTRODUCTION
This Technical Report publishes the hazard analysis at top system level conducted by
members of working group 45 of IEC technical committee 9 in order to allocate possible
safeguards able to compensate for the absence of a driver in the front cabin of the train or
attendant staff from the train as mentioned in 4.2 of IEC 62267:2009.
The hazard analysis is structured in accordance to basic functions of train operations
following Table 1 of IEC 62267:2009 covering the basic hazards of train operations.
The hazard analysis tabulates the identified hazards with their associated causes and triggers
as well as providing an associated list of possible safeguards able to compensate the
absence of operational staff from the front cabin of a train. The results of hazard analysis do
not state the choice of safeguards or the acceptable level of residual risk which may vary
depending on the local safety culture. The choice of a listed safeguard or combination of
safeguards, or the choice not to use any safeguard to compensate or mitigate a specific
hazard in a specific application depends on the risk tolerability which is to be assessed under
the responsibility of the Transport Authority and Safety Regulatory Authority by a specific risk
analysis. This technical report, therefore, does not judge whether a safeguard or a
combination of safeguards is necessary.
However, this technical report is intended to support Transport Authorities and Safety
Regulatory Authorities in hazard identification as well as selecting and combining safeguards
as a basis for a specific risk analysis required for any application with regard to their local
safety culture.
IEC 62267 can be seen as a generic guideline specifying detailed safety requirements for
safeguards proposed as a result of the present generic hazard analysis for the design of
specific AUGT systems. The hazard analysis and the safeguards derived from it, together with
their safety requirements, are based on experiences gained from design and operation of
existing AUGT systems in North America, Europe and Asia.
The present generic hazard analysis and the derived safety requirements can be seen and
used as part of the lifecycle of the system as defined in IEC 62278, required for any railway
application including AUGT systems. The present hazard analysis covers the required hazard
identification as part of risk analysis (lifecycle phase 3) and determination of safety-related
system requirements (lifecycle phase 4) on a generic level, which is indispensable for
design/implementation of an AUGT system. Because IEC 62267 specifies safety requirements
on a generic level only, a specific risk analysis including specific hazard identification must be
conducted. In order to facilitate the process of specific risk analysis and determine system
requirements, the present hazard identification, the list of possible safeguards and the
...
