Overview
EN 50463-4:2017/A1:2025 is an amendment (A1) to the European standard EN 50463-4:2017 addressing communication for on-board energy measurement. Prepared by CLC/TC 9X and approved by CENELEC on 16 June 2025, this amendment primarily updates normative references to align the standard with EN IEC 61375-2-6:2018 (Train Communication Network - on-board to ground communication). Key administrative changes include replacement of all occurrences of "prEN 61375-2-6" with "EN IEC 61375-2-6", modification of Clause 2 (Normative references) and deletion of Annex ZZ.
Implementation deadlines set by CENELEC are:
- Latest date for national implementation (dop): 2026-07-31
- Latest date for withdrawal of conflicting national standards (dow): 2028-07-31
This amendment should be read together with EN IEC 61375-2-6:2018 and was prepared under a standardization request to CENELEC.
Key Topics
- Normative reference update: Replaces prEN 61375-2-6 with EN IEC 61375-2-6 across the text.
- Clause 2 modification: The normative reference list is amended to cite EN IEC 61375-2-6.
- Annex ZZ removal: Annex ZZ is deleted as part of the alignment process.
- Governance and dates: Approval, implementation and withdrawal timelines provided by CENELEC.
- Scope alignment: Ensures consistency between railway energy measurement communication and Train Communication Network (TCN) on-board to ground specifications.
Applications
This amendment has direct practical value for stakeholders involved in rail energy measurement and communications, including:
- Train builders and integrators updating energy monitoring systems and communication stacks to meet current normative references.
- System architects ensuring interoperability between on-board energy measurement equipment and TCN on-board-to-ground modules.
- Regulators and compliance teams verifying that national standards and procurement specifications reference the updated EN IEC 61375-2-6.
- Maintenance and testing teams aligning procedures with current communication references to avoid mismatches during system upgrades.
Practical actions for users:
- Update project specifications and vendor contracts to cite EN IEC 61375-2-6.
- Review documentation and software interfaces that reference the previous prEN citation.
- Coordinate with national committees for timely national adoption and to confirm withdrawal timelines.
