IEC 62427:2024 describes a process to demonstrate compatibility between rolling stock (RST) and train detection systems (TDS). It describes the characterization of train detection systems, rolling stock and traction power supply systems.
It is worth noting that the demonstration of technical compatibility between the rolling stock and infrastructure with respect to physical dimensions is not detailed in this document.
This document is not generally applicable to those combinations of rolling stock, traction power supply and train detection system which were accepted as compatible prior to the publication of this document. However, as far as is reasonably practicable, this document can be applied to modifications of rolling stock, traction power supply or train detection systems which can affect compatibility. The detailed process can be used where no rules and processes for compatibility are established.
This second edition cancels and replaces the first edition published in 2007. This edition constitutes a technical revision.
This edition includes the following significant technical changes with respect to the previous edition:
a) generic compatibility process, which is broken into a two-stage process depending on whether there are established compatibility limits or not;
b) rules for characterization of train detection systems;
c) rules for characterization of rolling stock;
d) rules for characterization of the power system;
e) informative references are provided in notes to established CENELEC standards for compatibility;
f) terminology is updated.
