Part 1 deals with metal oxide arresters without gaps for d.c. railway traction systems (fixed installations) and is based on EN 60099-4. Part 2 deals wit
23、h voltage limiting devices for specific use in d.c. railway traction systems (fixed installations). Part 3 is a Guide of application of metal-oxide arresters and of voltage limiting devices. EN 50526-3:2016 (E)BS EN 50526-3:20161 Scope This Application Guide supports the European Standards EN 50526-
24、1 and EN 50526-2. Guidance is offered on the following subjects: the selection and installation of surge arresters; the selection and installation of voltage limiting devices as VLD-O and VLD-F; the arrangement of the surge arresters and VLDs. Because of differences in the established, proven method
25、s, electric traction systems of nominal voltage d.c. 600 V d.c. 750 V are treated separately from the systems at higher nominal voltages. This Application Guide only applies to d.c. electrified traction systems 2 Normative references The following documents, in whole or in part, are normatively refe
