International standard Current

Railway applications - Rolling stock - Combined test method for traction systems

IEC 61377:2016 applies to the traction system consisting of traction motor(s), converter(s), traction control equipment including software, transformer, input filters, brake resistors, main circuit-breaker, cooling equipment, transducers, contactors, etc. Types of motors applicable in this standard are asynchronous, or synchronous including permanent magnet (PMM), or direct current (DC). The objective of this standard is to specify the type test of a traction system, mainly comprising of:- test of performance characteristics;- test methods of verifying these performance characteristics. This new edition includes the following main technical changes with regard to the previous editions: it includes updates as necessary in order to meet the current technical state of the art, to improve clarity and to create an edition that considers all types of motors part of a traction system.

International standard Cancelled
Railway applications - Rolling stock - Combined testing - Part 2: Chopper-fed direct current traction motors and their control

Applies to the combinations of motor(s), chopper and their control, and its object is to specify a)the performance characteristics of electric drives consisting of a chopper, direct current motors, and the related control system b)methods of verifying these performance characteristics by tests. In traction drives, a combined system with chopper and direct current motor(s) without any control between the mechanical output and the chopper is not usual. It is not, therefore, considered in this standard. IEC 60349-1 applies to chopper-fed direct current motors, IEC 61287-1 to power electronic convertors, and IEC 60571 to electronic equipments. As a consequence, IEC 60349-1 describes the tests to demonstrate the compliance of the motor to its specification, while IEC 61287-1 does the same for the chopper.

ZOOM ON ... the Requirements department
To comply with a standard, you need to quickly understand its issues in order to determine its impact on your activity.

The Requirements department helps you quickly locate within the normative text:
- mandatory clauses to satisfy,
- non-essential but useful clauses to know, such as permissions and recommendations.

The identification of these types of clauses is based on the document “ISO / IEC Directives, Part 2 - Principles and rules of structure and drafting of ISO documents ”as well as on a constantly enriched list of verbal forms.
