Overview

EN 50153:2014/A2:2020 - "Railway applications - Rolling stock - Protective provisions relating to electrical hazards" (CENELEC/CLC) is a European standard (amendment A2) that defines protective measures to reduce electrical hazards on railway rolling stock. Prepared by CLC/SC 9XA and approved in 2019/2020, this document updates EN 50153:2014 to clarify requirements for protection against electric shock, live working and electrical compatibility on locomotives and passenger rolling stock. When cited in the Official Journal of the EU, compliance with its normative clauses can provide a presumption of conformity with relevant parts of Directive 2016/797/EU (interoperability/TSI LOC&PAS) within the standard’s scope.

Key Topics

• Protection against electric shock: measures and design principles to prevent injury from electrical contact on board rolling stock.
• Live working provisions: guidance for safe working practices on or near energized equipment.
• Electrical compatibility: requirements ensuring equipment does not create or suffer unacceptable electrical disturbances.
• Safety requirements for rolling stock: integration of electrical protection into overall train safety and conformity assessment.
• Normative relationship to TSI and EU law: Annex ZZ maps clauses to essential requirements of Directive 2016/797/EU, supporting certification and interoperability.
• Implementation and national adoption: amendment A2 sets dates for national publication and withdrawal of conflicting standards; users should consult the Official Journal for current status.

Note: the standard may reference national special conditions for some countries; it also alerts users to potential patent rights.

Applications

Who uses EN 50153:2014/A2:2020 and why:

• Rolling stock designers and electrical engineers - to specify and validate protective measures against electrical hazards during design.
• Maintenance and safety teams - to implement safe live-working procedures and preventive measures.
• Certification bodies and conformity assessors - to assess compliance with EU interoperability requirements (TSI LOC&PAS).
• Railway operators and infrastructure managers - to define operational rules that reduce electrical risk to staff and passengers.
• Regulators and national standards bodies - for harmonized national implementation and withdrawal of conflicting standards.

Related Standards

• Directive 2016/797/EU (Rail interoperability) - Annex ZZ links EN 50153 clauses to essential requirements.
• Other CENELEC/EN standards for rolling stock electrical systems and signalling may be relevant for complete conformity and system integration.

Keywords: EN 50153:2014/A2:2020, railway applications, rolling stock, electrical hazards, protection against electric shock, live working, electrical compatibility, TSI, CENELEC, conformity.
