IEC 60571 sets international standards for the design and testing of electronic equipment used in railway rolling stock, focusing on environmental, mechanical, and electrical requirements. It is technically similar to EN 50155, with both standards often used interchangeably for compliance in global rail projects. For a detailed comparison of these standards, see the Intrexis AG White Paper . RAILWAY CERTIFIED POWER SOLUTION GUIDE 2020

    • Dielectric Strength and Insulation: Ensuring that high voltage doesn't arc across the circuit board, causing fires or failures.
    • Electromagnetic Compatibility (EMC): Trains are packed with radios, signaling systems, and traction motors. The standard ensures equipment doesn't "talk over" safety-critical signals with electromagnetic noise.
    • Software Reliability: Modern iterations of the standard acknowledge that hardware is useless without stable software. It outlines requirements for software robustness, ensuring that a glitch doesn't result in a safety hazard (often referencing the related standard, EN 50128/IEC 62279).
