This International Standard specifies the requirements for the performance of all fixed installations electronic power converters, using controllable and/or non-controllable electronic valves, intended for traction power supply. The devices can be controlled by means of current, voltage or light. Non-bistable devices are assumed to be operated in the switched mode. This Standard applies to fixed installations of following electric traction systems: – railways, – guided mass transport systems such as: tramways, light rail systems, elevated and underground railways, mountain railways, trolleybusses. This Standard does not apply to – cranes, transportable platforms and similar transportation equipment on rails, – suspended cable cars, – funicular railways. This Standard applies to diode rectifiers, controlled rectifiers, inverters and frequency converters. The equipment covered in this Standard is the converter itself.
