Overview
EN 50463-5:2017/A1:2024 (CENELEC / CLC) is the amendment (A1) to EN 50463-5:2017, the Part 5 document of the EN 50463 series on energy measurement on board trains. Part 5 covers the conformity assessment requirements for on‑board energy measurement systems. The 2024 amendment updates the standard’s normative material by deleting Annex ZZ and was approved by CENELEC on 2024‑06‑10. National implementation is expected by 2025‑06‑10, with conflicting national standards to be withdrawn by 2027‑06‑10.
Key topics and requirements
Note: the amendment A1 specifically modifies the original Part 5 by removing Annex ZZ. The Part 5 standard itself addresses conformity assessment topics such as:
- Conformity assessment framework for on‑board energy measurement devices (procedures to demonstrate compliance with the EN 50463 series).
- Documentation and evidence required for certification (technical files, test reports, declarations of conformity).
- Type approval and production conformity considerations for energy measuring equipment fitted to trains.
- Interoperability and regulatory alignment across national markets through CENELEC harmonization.
- Reference pathways to the other parts of the EN 50463 series (general requirements, energy measuring specifications, data handling).
Because amendment A1 deletes Annex ZZ, stakeholders should review the updated national adoption notes and transitional provisions published by CENELEC and their national committees.
Practical applications
EN 50463-5 is used to ensure on‑board energy measuring systems meet common European conformity criteria. Typical applications include:
- Certifying energy meters and measurement subsystems installed on tractive stock or multiple units.
- Preparing technical documentation for market surveillance, tenders, and type approval.
- Establishing supplier quality and production control processes for energy measurement hardware and firmware.
- Supporting interoperable energy billing and energy‑efficiency reporting at vehicle and fleet level.
Who should use this standard
- Railway vehicle manufacturers and suppliers of energy measurement systems
- Certification bodies and notified conformity assessment laboratories
- Railway operators and energy managers implementing on‑board metering for billing/monitoring
- System integrators and signal/control engineers responsible for energy data interfaces
- National standards bodies and regulatory authorities applying CENELEC rules
