EN 50122-2 Railway Applications - Fixed Installations - Test for Electrical Safety, Grounding and Return Circuit

EUROLAB, with its state-of-the-art accredited laboratories and expert team, provides precise and fast testing services within the scope of EN 50122-2 testing. This standard specifies requirements for protective provisions against the effects of leakage currents resulting from the operation of dc traction systems.

This European Standard deals only with stray currents flowing through a dc traction system, as several decades of experience have not shown significant corrosion effects from traction systems and actual research has not been completed.

This European Standard applies to all metallic fixed installations that form part of the traction system, as well as to other metallic components located anywhere in the world that can carry leakage currents from the operation of the railway system.

This European Standard applies to all new DC lines and all major revisions to existing DC lines. The principles can also be applied to existing electrified transport systems where it is necessary to consider the effects of leakage currents.

Provides design requirements to allow maintenance.

This European Standard does not specify operating rules for maintenance.
