Standard EN SampleRailways Applications: Direct Current Signalling Relays
Also Known As:
The BS EN 50578:2013 standard is focused on direct current signalling relays used in railway applications. It specifies the requirements for relays that are used in safety-related applications within railway signalling installations. The standard is applicable to monostable relays and can be used as a guide for other types of relays, such as bistable relays.
This standard ensures that the relays used in railway signalling installations meet the necessary safety requirements. It provides guidance on the design, construction, and performance of the relays to ensure their proper functioning. By adhering to this standard, railway operators can ensure the reliability and safety of their signalling systems.
The main purpose of this standard is to establish a common set of requirements for direct current signalling relays in railway applications. This helps to streamline the design and procurement processes for these relays, ensuring compatibility and ease of integration into railway signalling systems. By adhering to BS EN 50578:2013, railway operators can ensure the compatibility and safety of their signalling equipment, which is crucial for the efficient and safe operation of the railway network.
