    Abstract - (Show below) - (Hide below)

    Pertains to: - fixed installations (downstream of the secondary of the substation transformer) and rolling stock equipment linked to the contact line of one of the systems defined in EN 50163; - rolling stock equipment linked to a train line.

    Scope - (Show below) - (Hide below)

    This European Standard applies to: fixed installations (downstream of the secondary of the substation transformer) and rolling stock equipment linked to the contact line of one of the systems defined in EN50163 ; rolling stock equipment linked to a train line. This European Standard gives simulation and/or test requirements for protection against transient overvoltages of such equipment. Long-term overvoltages are not addressed in this document.
