This Standard offers a set of rules that are applied in the design and manufacture of electrical installations and equipment to be used on rolling stock so as to protect the persons from electric shocks.

This Standard is applicable to vehicles of rail transport systems, road vehicles powered by an external supply (trolley buses), magnetic levitated vehicles and to the electrical equipment installed in these vehicles.

This Standard does not apply to

— mine railways in underground mines;

— crane installations, moving platforms and similar transport systems on rails;

— funicular railways;

— temporary constructions.

Testing of vehicles against the requirements of this Standard is not included.

NOTE 1 For the relevant tests, see JIS E 4041.

NOTE 2 It is generally accepted that safety depends on human factors, based on the normal behaviour of the operators involved, as well as upon technical factors.

For these reasons, this Standard, in several instances, leaves a choice to the contracting parties [e.g the user or the purchaser and the manufacturer (hereafter referred to as "contracting parties")] between the alternatives which consist either in :

a) the provision of operating rules, regulations and procedures in the instruction manual; or in

b) the application of technical measures such as mechanical or electrical interlocking devices.

A list of the cases for which the contracting parties shall reach agreement before signing the contract is included in Annex A.

NOTE 3 The International Standard corresponding to this Standard and the symbol of degree of correspondence are as follows :

IEC 61991 : 2000 Rallway applications — Rolling stock — Protective provisions against electrical hazards (MOD)

The symbols which denote the degree of correspondence in the contents between JIS and the corresponding International Standard are IDT (identical), MOD (modified) and NEQ (not equivalent) according to ISO/IEC Guide 21.
