Project description
This project is a relevant part of the general UIC-IEC (International Electrotechnical Committee) cooperation framework. The scope is to perform the joint (IEC/TC9 WG43 andWG46 and UIC RSF - Rolling Stock Sector) detailed analysis and completion of the standards related to the main on-board rolling stock applications related to traction. Concretely, it is necessary to identify and revise or define the interfaces between the UIC and IEC standards (see the input documents), harmonise them, detect the numerous open points, propose the needed change requests and provide traceable conditions for Traction, Remote Control, Braking and (tele)Diagnostics of vehicles and trainsets.
