Introduction

This product standard is Part 2 of the EN 60077 series of product standards:
Railway applications - Electric equipment for rolling stock
- Part 1: General service conditions and general rules,
- Part 2: Electrotechnical components - General rules,
- Part 3: Electrotechnical components - Rules for d.c. circuit-breakers,
- Part 4: Electrotechnical components - Rules for a.c. circuit-breakers,
- Part 5: Electrotechnical components - Rules for HV fuses.

This document has used IEC 60077-2 as its base and its form and structure have been
modified to take account of already existing European Standards covering related subjects.

1 Scope

In addition to the rules given in EN 60077-1, this European standard provides general rules
for all electrotechnical components installed in power circuits, auxiliary circuits and control
circuits, etc., on rolling stock.

NOTE Certain of these rules may, after agreement between user and manufacturer, be used for
electrotechnical components installed on vehicles other than rail rolling stock such as mine locomotives,
trolleybuses, etc.

The purpose of this standard is to adapt the general rules given in EN 60077-1 to all
electrotechnical components for rolling stock, in order to obtain uniformity of requirements
and tests for the corresponding range of components.

Electrotechnical components are mainly switchgear and controlgear, irrespective of their
control, including also relays, valves, resistors, fuses, etc.

NOTE The incorporation of electronic components or electronic sub-assemblies into electrotechnical
components is now common practice. Although this standard 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 should comply with the relevant standard.

This standard states
a) the characteristics of the components,
b) the constructional and performance requirements with which components have to comply,
c) the tests intended to confirm compliance of the components with these characteristics
under these service conditions, and the methods to be adopted for these tests,
d) the information to be marked on, or given with the apparatus.

This standard does not cover industrial electrotechnical components which comply with their
own product standard. In order to ensure satisfactory operation of these components for
rolling stock, this standard should be used to specify only the particular requirements for
railway application. In that case, a specific document should state the additional
requirements with which the industrial components are to comply, e.g.
- to be adapted (for example for control voltage, environmental conditions, etc.), or
- to be installed and used such that they do not have to endure specific railway conditions,
or
- to be additionally tested to prove that these components can withstand satisfactorily the
railway conditions.
