This standard covers everything from train control and monitoring systems (TCMS) to power converters, door control units, and passenger information systems. Unlike generic industrial electronics standards (e.g., IEC 61000-6-2), IEC 60571 tailors every requirement to the unique harshness of the railway: severe vibrations, large temperature swings, power supply fluctuations, and high electromagnetic interference (EMI).
It is important to note that in many regions, particularly in Europe, is the dominant standard used for certification today. However, EN 50155 and IEC 60571 are closely linked. In fact, EN 50155 often cites test methods defined in other IEC standards (such as IEC 60068 for environmental testing). iec 60571pdf
