RAILWAY APPLICATIONS – ROLLING STOCK –
TESTING OF ROLLING STOCK ON COMPLETION OF
CONSTRUCTION AND BEFORE ENTRY INTO SERVICE

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 61133 has been prepared by IEC technical committee 9: Electrical
equipment and systems for railways.
This standard is derived from EN 50215.
This third edition cancels and replaces the second edition, published in 2006; it constitutes a
technical revision.
The main technical changes with regard to the previous edition are as follows:
• References to standards other than international have been removed from the main text so
the notes refer solely to Annex B;
• Annex B has been updated with the latest European information, and cross-references
between the TSIs and ENs and the clauses of IEC 61133 have been added.

IEC 61133:2016 © IEC 2016 – 7 –
The text of this standard is based on the the second edition and the following documents:
FDIS Report on voting
9/2096/FDIS 9/2132/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.
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.

RAILWAY APPLICATIONS – ROLLING STOCK –
TESTING OF ROLLING STOCK ON COMPLETION OF
CONSTRUCTION AND BEFORE ENTRY INTO SERVICE

1 Scope
This International Standard specifies general criteria to demonstrate by testing that newly
constructed complete railway vehicles conform with standards or other normative documents.
This International Standard, as a whole or in part, applies to all railway vehicles except
special purpose vehicles such as track-laying machines, ballast cleaners and personnel
carriers. The extent of application of the standard for particular vehicles will be specifically
mentioned in the contract, to take account, where necessary, of any legislative requirements.
NOTE 1 The parts of the standard which are applicable will depend on the type of vehicle (e.g. passenger, freight,
powered trailer, etc.).
NOTE 2 The scope of this standard excludes railbound and road/rail vehicles for construction and maintenance of
railway infrastructure.
NOTE 3 This standard does not deal with tests carried out on components or equipment before fitting to the
vehicle.
In so far as this International Standard is applicable, it may be used for the following:
– generator sets mounted on a vehicle provided for auxiliary purposes;
– electrical transmission used on trolley buses or similar vehicles;
– control and auxiliary equipment of vehicles with non-electrical propulsion systems;
– vehicles guided, supported or electrically propelled by systems which do not use the
adhesion between wheel and rail.
NOTE 4 Specific technical requirements apply to vehicles which operate on the railways in the European Union.
The source of those requirements is given in Annex B. Where a European requirement applies to a given clause, a
note has been inserted at the end of the clause.
