Pertains to single-pole and two-pole alternating current (a.c.) disconnectors, earthing switches and switches which are: - designed for indoor or outdoor fixed installations in tractions systems, and - operated with an a.c. line voltage and frequency as specified in EN 50163.

This European Standard is applicable to single-pole and two-pole alternating current (a.c.) disconnectors, earthing switches and switches which are:

  • designed for indoor or outdoor fixed installations in tractions systems, and

  • operated with an a.c. line voltage and frequency as specified in EN50163.

    NOTE1 EN50163 specifies the a.c. traction systems 15kV 16,7Hz and 25kV 50Hz.

    NOTE2 As rails of a.c. traction systems are connected to earth and included in the return current path all phase to earth voltages will be within the tolerances as specified in EN50163. Nevertheless phase to phase voltages are sometimes higher, e.g. in autotransformer systems.

    NOTE3 The two poles of a switch can be connected in series to provide secure isolation (i.e. two breaks in series).
