RE: EU Directives for Locomotive Switching and Communications Systems
That's right, We recently did some compliance work on a radio system for the channel tunnel. It was necessary to combine the test requirements of the railway EMC standard for telecoms (EN 50121-4) with the exclusion bands and performance criterion from the radio standards (plus a couple of other tweaks).

EU Directives for Locomotive Switching and Communications Systems
Does anyone know what Directives would apply the electronic switching control systems and communications systems used in railway systems. some of this equipment would be installed on the locomotive, some in a control center some in train stations. I would thin the LVD and EMC directives would apply or is there a directive specific to this type of equipment. Any communications systems that use the airways or PSTN would fall under the RTTE, but is there anything if the communications is via the rails. Thanks!
