Railway applications - Rolling stock - DC supplied electronic ballasts for lighting fluorescent lamps

IEC 62718:2013 specifies the performance and constructional requirements, and associated tests, for d.c. supplied electronic ballasts used to supply fluorescent lamps for lighting on railway rolling stock. Its requirements replace those of IEC 61347 for all railway rolling stock applications and specify and complete those of IEC 61347 for the specific needs of railway rolling stock applications.

Applications ferroviaires - Matériel roulant - Ballasts électroniques à courant continu pour lampes fluorescentes d'éclairage

La CEI 62718:2013 spécifie les exigences relatives à la construction et aux performances, et les essais correspondants, pour les ballasts électroniques alimentés en courant continu utilisés pour alimenter les lampes fluorescentes pour l'éclairage du matériel roulant ferroviaire. Ses exigences remplacent celles de la CEI 61347 pour toutes les applications sur le matériel roulant ferroviaire; elles précisent et complètent celles de la CEI 61347 pour les besoins spécifiques des applications ferroviaires.

Železniške naprave - Vozna sredstva - Elektronska bremena za fluorescenčne svetilke, napajane z enosmerno napetostjo

Standard IEC 62718:2013 določa zahteve glede lastnosti in konstrukcije ter povezane preskuse za elektronska bremena za fluorescenčne svetilke za osvetljevanje na železniških voznih sredstvih. Njegove zahteve nadomeščajo zahteve standarda IEC 61347 za vsa železniška vozna sredstva in dopolnjujejo zahteve standarda IEC 61347 za posebne potrebe pri železniških voznih sredstvih.

INTERNATIONAL ELECTROTECHNICAL COMMISSION ____________
RAILWAY APPLICATIONS – ROLLING STOCK – DC SUPPLIED ELECTRONIC BALLASTS FOR LIGHTING FLUORESCENT LAMPS
FOREWORD 1) The International Electrotechnical Commission (IEC) is a worldwide organization for standardization comprising all national electrotechnical committees (IEC National Committees). The object of IEC is to promote international co-operation on all questions concerning standardization in the electrical and electronic fields. To this end and in addition to other activities, IEC publishes International Standards, Technical Specifications, Technical Reports, Publicly Available Specifications (PAS) and Guides (hereafter referred to as “IEC Publication(s)”). Their preparation is entrusted to technical committees; any IEC National Committee interested in the subject dealt with may participate in this preparatory work. International, governmental and non-governmental organizations liaising with the IEC also participate in this preparation. IEC collaborates closely with the International Organization for Standardization (ISO) in accordance with conditions determined by agreement between the two organizations. 2) The formal decisions or agreements of IEC on technical matters express, as nearly as possible, an international consensus of opinion on the relevant subjects since each technical committee has representation from all interested IEC National Committees.
3) IEC Publications have the form of recommendations for international use and are accepted by IEC National Committees in that sense. While all reasonable efforts are made to ensure that the technical content of IEC Publications is accurate, IEC cannot be held responsible for the way in which they are used or for any misinterpretation by any end user. 4) In order to promote international uniformity, IEC National Committees undertake to apply IEC Publications transparently to the maximum extent possible in their national and regional publications. Any divergence between any IEC Publication and the corresponding national or regional publication shall be clearly indicated in the latter. 5) IEC itself does not provide any attestation of conformity. Independent certification bodies provide conformity assessment services and, in some areas, access to IEC marks of conformity. IEC is not responsible for any services carried out by independent certification bodies. 6) All users should ensure that they have the latest edition of this publication. 7) No liability shall attach to IEC or its directors, employees, servants or agents including individual experts and members of its technical committees and IEC National Committees for any personal injury, property damage or other damage of any nature whatsoever, whether direct or indirect, or for costs (including legal fees) and expenses arising out of the publication, use of, or reliance upon, this IEC Publication or any other IEC Publications.
8) Attention is drawn to the Normative references cited in this publication. Use of the referenced publications is indispensable for the correct application of this publication. 9) Attention is drawn to the possibility that some of the elements of this IEC Publication may be the subject of patent rights. IEC shall not be held responsible for identifying any or all such patent rights. International Standard IEC 62718 has been prepared by IEC technical committee 9: Electrical equipment and systems for railways. This standard is based on EN 50311:2003. The text of this standard is based on the following documents: FDIS Report on voting 9/1769A/FDIS 9/1798/RVD
Full information on the voting for the approval of this standard can be found in the report on voting indicated in the above table. This publication has been drafted in accordance with the ISO/IEC Directives, Part 2. SIST EN 62718:2016



62718 © IEC:2013 – 5 –The committee has decided that the contents of this publication will remain unchanged until the stability date indicated on the IEC web site under "http://webstore.iec.ch" in the data related to the specific publication. At this date, the publication will be
• reconfirmed, • withdrawn, • replaced by a revised edition, or • amended. The contents of the corrigendum of February 2016 have been included in this copy.

INTRODUCTION This International Standard has been developed specifically for railway applications, to supplement the current standards. It covers general safety and performance requirements in addition to or in place of those contained in IEC 61347-1, IEC 61347-2-3 and 61347-2-7. NOTE 1 When applied unchanged, the clauses of IEC 61347 are either referred in this standard or introduced into it if they are short texts. NOTE 2 When a clause of IEC 61347 applies with changes or is replaced by more specific requirements, generally a short note explains the difference or the reason for that. SIST EN 62718:2016



62718 © IEC:2013 – 7 –RAILWAY APPLICATIONS – ROLLING STOCK – DC SUPPLIED ELECTRONIC BALLASTS FOR LIGHTING FLUORESCENT LAMPS
1 Scope This International Standard specifies the performance and constructional requirements, and associated tests, for d.c. supplied electronic ballasts used to supply fluorescent lamps for lighting on railway rolling stock. Its requirements replace those of IEC 61347 for all railway rolling stock applications and specify and complete those of IEC 61347 for the specific needs of railway rolling stock applications. This international standard applies to electronic ballasts – supplying pre-heated cathode fluorescent lamps without integrated starters, tubular or single capped, according to IEC 60081 and IEC 60901 respectively, – having a single and non adjustable luminous flux level. It does not apply to electronic ballasts supplying non pre-heated cathode lamps and/or lamps with integrated starters. 2 Normative references The following documents, in whole or in part, are normatively referenced in this document and are indispensable for its application. For dated references, only the edition cited applies. For undated references, the latest edition of the referenced document (including any amendments) applies.
