34、1:2017 (E) 6 Introduction Special conditions occurring in railway applications and the fact that the equipment here concerned falls into the scope of both the EN 60071 series (prepared by CLC/SR 28) and EN 60664-1 (prepared by CLC/SR 109), led to the decision to draw from these documents and from EN
35、 60077-1 (prepared by CLC/TC 9), a single document of reference for all standards applicable to the whole railway field. EN 50124 consists of two parts: EN 50124-1, Railway applications - Insulation coordination - Part 1: Basic requirements - Clearances and creepage distances for all electrical and
36、electronic equipment; EN 50124-2, Railway applications - Insulation coordination - Part 2: Overvoltages and related protection. This Part 1 allows, in conjunction with EN 50124-2, to take into account advantages resulting from the presence of overvoltage protection when dimensioning clearances. BS E
37、N 50124-1:2017EN 50124-1:2017 (E) 7 1 Scope This European Standard deals with insulation coordination in railways. It applies to equipment for use in signalling, rolling stock and fixed installations. Insulation coordination is concerned with the selection, dimensioning and correlation of insulation
38、 both within and between items of equipment. In dimensioning insulation, electrical stresses and environmental conditions are taken into account. For the same conditions and stresses, these dimensions are the same. An objective of insulation coordination is to avoid unnecessary over dimensioning of
39、insulation. This standard specifies: requirements for clearances and creepage distances for equipment; general requirements for tests pertaining to insulation coordination. The term equipment relates to a section as defined in 3.3 it may apply to a system, a sub-system, an apparatus, a part of an ap
40、paratus, or a physical realization of an equipotential line. This standard does not deal with: distances through solid or liquid insulation; distances through gases other than air; distances through air not at atmospheric pressure; equipment used under extreme conditions. Product standards should al
41、ign with this generic standard. However, they may require, with justification, different requirements due to safety and/or reliability reasons, e.g. for signalling, and/or particular operating conditions of the equipment itself, e.g. overhead contact lines which should comply with EN 50119. This sta
42、ndard also gives provisions for dielectric tests (type tests or routine tests) on equipment (see Annex B). NOTE For safety critical systems, specific requirements are needed. These requirements are given in the product specific signalling standard EN 50129. 2 Normative references The following docum
43、ents, in whole or in part, are normatively referenced in this document and are indispensable for its application. For dated references, only the edition cited applies.
