What is BS EN 50562 - Process, protective measures, and demonstration of safety for electric traction systems about?
BS EN 50562 discusses safety for electric traction systems for Railway applications. BS EN 50562 is an international standard that provides guidance on conventional electric traction systems for railways so that all these systems can be elevated, at-grade, and underground.
BS EN 50562 outlines the process, protective measures, and demonstration of safety under EN 50126 for conventional electric traction systems for railways.
BS EN 50562 applies to conventional electric traction systems, which are new or are undergoing major changes.
BS EN 50562 can also be applied to guided mass transport systems and trolleybus systems.
For similar technology and similar hazardous scenarios, the safety considerations of this standard can be used as a guideline.
Note: Other systems including those listed below were not assessed and therefore are outside the scope of BS EN 50562 :
Underground mine traction systems
Cranes, transportable platforms and similar transportation equipment on rails, temporary structures (e.g., exhibition structures) in so far as these are not supplied directl...
