EUROLAB, with its state-of-the-art accredited laboratories and expert team, provides precise and fast testing services within the scope of IEC EN 62498-2 testing. IEC EN 62498-2 deals with the environmental effects on fixed electrical installations for the equipment and traction power supply required to operate a railway:
Such effects include altitude, temperature and humidity, air movement, rain, snow, hail, ice, sand, solar radiation, lightning, pollution, vibration, shocks, EMC, and earthquakes.
In the case of environmental conditions not covered by the standard, the data to be adopted for a specific project should be clearly stated when preparing the specification. This standard is not intended to apply to cranes, underground mine installations, cable cars and funicular railways. Nuclear radiation is excluded. Signaling and telecommunication systems are not considered in this standard.
The buyer shall clearly indicate the class to be considered in the specification. Otherwise, the class specified in the product standard, if any, will apply. Where no other specifications are specified, the normal terms in this standard will be used. Installations shall operate or be able to operate under all specified conditions.
Environmental conditions are taken into account for normal operation. More severe conditions may be specified so that the equipment can withstand damage when not in operation. An example of such a situation would be wind speed that does not destroy the overhead contact line, but is high enough to cause the wires to come loose.
