In addition to the general requirements of NEN-EN-IEC 60077-2, NEN-EN-IEC 60077-3 gives the rules for circuit-breakers, the main contacts of which are connected to DC power and/or auxiliary circuits. The nominal voltage of these circuits does not exceed 3 000 V DC according to IEC 60850. This part of IEC 60077, together with IEC 60077-2, states specifically: a) the characteristics of the circuit-breakers; b) the service conditions with which circuit-breakers complies with reference to: - operation and behaviour in normal service; - operation and behaviour in the case of short circuit; - dielectric properties; c) the tests for confirming the compliance of the components with the characteristics under the service conditions and the methods to be adopted for these tests; d) the information to be marked on, or given with, the circuit breaker.

L'IEC 60077-3:2019 donne, en complément des règles générales de l'IEC 60077‑2, les règles relatives aux disjoncteurs dont les contacts sont connectés aux circuits à courant continu de traction et/ou aux circuits des auxiliaires. La tension continue nominale de ces circuits n'excède pas 3 000 V CC, conformément à l'IEC 60850. En complément de l'IEC 60077-2, la présente partie de l'IEC 60077 précise particulièrement:
a) les caractéristiques des disjoncteurs;
b) les conditions de service que les disjoncteurs supportent du point de vue:
- du fonctionnement et du comportement en service normal;
- du fonctionnement et du comportement en cas de court-circuit;
- des propriétés diélectriques;
c) les essais de conformité des composants avec les caractéristiques dans les conditions de service ainsi que les méthodes d'essai correspondantes à utiliser;
d) les informations à donner ou à marquer sur le disjoncteur.

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.
International Standard IEC 60077-3 has been prepared by IEC technical committee 9:
Electrical equipment and systems for railways.
This second edition cancels and replaces the first edition, issued in 2001. It constitutes a
technical revision.
This edition includes the following main technical changes with regard to the previous edition:
a) procedure of verification of temperature rise is changed;
b) air-tightness test as type test, insulation resistance measurement are added.

Rules for DC circuit-breakers
1 Scope
In addition to the general requirements of IEC 60077-2, this part of IEC 60077 gives the rules
for circuit-breakers, the main contacts of which are connected to DC power and/or auxiliary
circuits. The nominal voltage of these circuits does not exceed 3 000 V DC according to
IEC 60850.
This part of IEC 60077, together with IEC 60077-2, states specifically:
a) the characteristics of the circuit-breakers;
b) the service conditions with which circuit-breakers complies with reference to:
– operation and behaviour in normal service;
– operation and behaviour in the case of short circuit;
– dielectric properties;
c) the tests for confirming the compliance of the components with the characteristics under
the service conditions and the methods to be adopted for these tests;
d) the information to be marked on, or given with, the circuit breaker.
NOTE 1 Circuit-breakers which are dealt with in this document can be provided with devices for automatic
opening under predetermined conditions other than those of overcurrent, for example, under-voltage and reversal
of power flow direction. This document does not deal with the verification of operation under such predetermined
conditions.
NOTE 2 The incorporation of electronic components or electronic sub-assemblies into electrotechnical components is
now common practice.
Although this document is not applicable to electronic equipment, the presence of electronic components does not
provide a reason to exclude such electrotechnical components from the scope.
Electronic sub-assemblies included in circuit-breakers comply with the relevant document for electronics
(IEC 60571).
NOTE 3 Certain of these rules, after agreement between the user and the manufacturer, are used for electro-
technical components installed on vehicles other than rail rolling stock such as mine locomotives, trolleybuses, etc.
In this case, particular additional requirements can be necessary.
This document does not cover:
e) multi-connection of electro-technical components to achieve a particular duty;
f) industrial circuit-breakers which complies with IEC 60947-2;
g) DC circuit-breakers for fixed installations which complies with IEC 61992-2.
For f) and g), in order to ensure satisfactory operation, this document is used to specify only
the particular requirements for rolling stock. In such cases, a specific document states the
additional requirements with which the industrial or fixed installations circuits breakers comply,
for example:
– either to be adapted (for example, for control voltage, environmental conditions, etc.);
– or to be installed and used in such a way that they do not have to endure specific rolling
stock conditions;
---------------------- Page: 12 ----------------------

– or to be additionally tested to prove that these components can withstand satisfactorily the
rolling stock conditions.
