Introduction
This Technical Specification defines characteristics and interfaces for electric onboard auxiliary power
converter systems. This includes auxiliary power converters and battery chargers. The following
European Standards and Technical Specifications refer to the defined target energy supply system in
this present Technical Specification:

electric auxiliary power systems)

(Standardized products used in conjunction with traction transformers and
traction cooling systems)
CLC/TS 50535 has to be understood as a basic document of a set of hierarchically structured
specifications as illustrated in the foreword. This set of European Standards and Technical
Specifications defines a consistent technical framework beginning on an architectural level, followed
by standards belonging to important system interfaces and concluding this hierarchy with Technical
Specifications on component level. The diagram in the foreword points up these different system
integration levels and shows the dependencies between the documents.
One main objective of this standardisation initiative is to simplify the cooperation between concerned
railway stakeholders in charge of operating onboard auxiliary power systems, designing systems able
to cope with the operational requirements and stakeholders manufacturing auxiliary power system
components, which provide the requested services.

4.1 Definitions for onboard auxiliary power converter systems
General requirements of the electronics systems installed in the rail vehicles are defined in
EN 61287-1. Onboard auxiliary power converter systems are an integral part of the electrical system in
trains. They are a collection of power components that convert, manage and distribute electrical power
from the input source(s) to the auxiliary loads.
