Overview

The European Standard specifies characteristics for composite insulators of electric traction overhead contact line systems for railways, as defined in IEC 60913. Insulators specified in this standard are applied for electric traction supply voltages with a nominal voltage greater than 1000 V for a.c. or a nominal voltage greater than 1500 V for d.c. Specific applications where high torsional loads can occur are outside the scope of this standard and particular tests are agreed between the supplier and customer to represent the critical loading arrangements. The provisions contained in this standard are intended for the design and construction of new electric traction overhead contact line systems using insulators, or when complete refurbishment of existing overhead contact line systems takes place. This standard provides the purchaser and manufacturer with a range of tests which are used to evaluate the suitability of an insulator product for a given railway environment. Additional tests may be specified by the client to measure the compliance of the insulator under particular operating conditions. The standard also establishes the product characteristics, the test methods and acceptance criteria. The responsible committee is DKE/UK 351.2 "Ortsfeste Anlagen" ("Fixed installations") of the DKE (German Commission for Electrical, Electronic and Information Technologies) at DIN and VDE.
