IEC 60571

The standard is the international benchmark for the design, manufacture, and testing of electronic equipment used on railway rolling stock. Whether it is a high-speed train or a local metro, any electronic system—from passenger information displays to engine control units—must meet the rigorous criteria outlined in this document to ensure safety and reliability in harsh railway environments. What is IEC 60571?

2. Mechanical Testing

Why is it Necessary?

Electromagnetic Compatibility (EMC):

Ensuring the device doesn't interfere with other train systems and isn't affected by external radio frequencies. iec 60571pdf

• Immunity against radiated and conducted disturbances from traction return currents, onboard radios, and overhead lines.
• Emission limits to avoid interfering with signalling (e.g., track circuits) and communication systems.
• Specific test levels based on location (e.g., inside cab vs. near traction converters).
