Railway applications - Fire protection on railway vehicles - Part 5: Fire safety requirements for electrical equipment including that of trolley buses, track guided buses and magnetic levitation vehicles

This European Standard specifies the fire safety requirements for electrical equipment on railway vehicles, including that of trolley buses, track guided buses and magnetic levitation vehicles. The measures and requirements, should protect passengers and staff in railway vehicles in the event of a fire on board by lowering the risk of starting a fire and ensuring that electrical emergency equipment continues to be functional until evacuation is complete.

Bahnanwendungen - Brandschutz in Schienenfahrzeugen - Teil 5: Brandschutzanforderungen an die elektrische Ausrüstung einschließlich der von Oberleitungsbussen, spurgeführten Bussen und Magnetschwebefahrzeugen

Dieser Teil von EN 45545 legt die Sicherheitsanforderungen an die elektrische Ausrüstung von Schienen-fahrzeugen einschließlich der von Oberleitungsbussen, spurgeführten Bussen und Magnetschwebefahr-zeugen fest.
Die in dieser Europäischen Norm festgelegten Maßnahmen und Anforderungen haben zum Ziel, Fahrgäste und Personal in Schienenfahrzeugen im Brandfall an Bord zu schützen, indem:
–   die Gefahr des Ausbruches von Feuer während des Betriebes und als Ergebnis eines technischen Fehlers und/oder des Versagens der elektrischen Ausrüstung auf ein Mindestmaß reduziert wird;
–   sichergestellt wird, dass die elektrischen Notfallausrüstungen solange zur Verfügung stehen, bis die Eva¬kuierung abgeschlossen ist (siehe FprEN 45545 6).

Applications ferroviaires - Protection contre les incendies dans les véhicules ferroviaires - Partie 5: Exigences de sécurité incendie pour l'équipement électrique, y compris celui des trolleybus, des autobus guidés et des véhicules à sustentation magnétique

La présente partie de l’EN 45545 spécifie les exigences de sécurité incendie pour l’équipement électrique des véhicules ferroviaires y compris celui des trolleybus, des autobus guidés et des véhicules à sustentation magnétique.
Les mesures et les exigences spécifiées dans la présente Norme européenne ont pour objectif de protéger à la fois les voyageurs et le personnel dans les véhicules ferroviaires en cas d’incendie à bord:
   en réduisant les risques d’ignition à la fois lors de l’exploitation et comme résultant d’un défaut technique et/ou fonctionnel de l’équipement électrique;
   en assurant le fonctionnement des équipements électriques de sécurité jusqu’à l’évacuation complète des personnes (voir FprEN 45545-6).

Železniške naprave - Požarna zaščita na železniških vozilih - 5. del: Zahteve požarne varnosti za električno opremo, vključno z opremo trolejbusov, tirno vodenih avtobusov in lebdečih vozil na magnetni blazini

Ta evropski standard določa zahteve požarne varnosti za električno opremo na železniških vozilih, vključno z opremo trolejbusov, tirno vodenih avtobusov in lebdečih vozil na magnetni blazini. Ukrepi in zahteve so namenjeni zaščiti potnikov in osebja na železniških vozilih v primeru požara, tako da preprečujejo nevarnost povzročitve požara in zagotavljajo delovanje elektronske opreme v sili, dokler evakuacija ni končana.

EN 45545-5:2013 (E) 4 Introduction This European Standard has been developed from existing fire safety regulations for railway vehicles from the International Union of Railways (UIC) and different European countries. In using the operation and design categories defined in EN 45545-1, the requirements laid down in the different parts of EN 45545 will take into account the current operating conditions for European public rail transport. SIST EN 45545-5:2013



EN 45545-5:2013 (E) 5 1 Scope This Part of EN 45545 specifies the fire safety requirements for electrical equipment on railway vehicles, including that of trolley buses, track guided buses and magnetic levitation vehicles. The measures and requirements, specified in this European Standard meet the objective of protecting passengers and staff in railway vehicles in the event of a fire on board by:  lowering the risk of starting a fire both during operation and as a result of technical defect and/or malfunction of the electrical equipment,  ensuring that electrical emergency equipment continues to be functional until evacuation is complete
(see EN 45545-6). 2 Normative references The following documents, in whole or in part, are normatively referenced in this document and are indispensable for its application.

SIST EN 45545-5:2013



EN 45545-5:2013 (E) 6 In addition to the design requirements of this European Standard, electrical equipment shall be designed to withstand the mechanical, electrical and thermal stresses which are likely to be encountered in operation (see EN 50125-1). The requirements for cabling and integrity of connection are specified in EN 50343. The requirements for fire behaviour properties of materials are specified in EN 45545-2. 5 Design requirements 5.1 Overload protection When selecting the method and setting of overload protection to be installed between the current collectors and current consumers of a railway vehicle, consideration shall be given to the following:  values of the short circuit currents;  duration of these short circuit currents;  any load side components which may modify the fault characteristics, e. g. the main filter reactor in a traction converter;  characteristics of the power supply and its protection devices. Where neither pole of the power supply is bonded to earth, the overload protection shall be on both poles of the supply line (e. g. trolley buses). When selecting the method and settings of other overload protection devices (e.g. fuses and circuit breakers) consideration shall be given to the following:  the normal load;  line impedance;  source impedance;  short circuit characteristics;  breaking capability of the overload protection device. The unprotected parts of circuits shall be as short as possible; this shall be achieved by ensuring that protective devices and transducers for protective devices are installed as close as possible to the source of supply. Precautions shall be taken to prevent a protective device from reclosing on to a known fault, where the electrical equipment is not capable of withstanding the fault current.
Precautions may be:  preferably fault detection equipment design;
 operation instruction. 5.2 Cabling High power cables shall be contained in a metallic duct or a metallic conduit earth bonded to the body if they are running: SIST EN 45545-5:2013
