This document specifies the requirements and tests for the design of overhead contact line systems, requirements for structures and their structural calculations and verifications as well as the requirements and tests for the design of assemblies and individual parts.

This document is applicable to electric traction overhead contact line systems in heavy railways, light railways, for trolley bus lines, electric road systems (Annex E) and industrial railways of public and private operators. This document is applicable to new installations of overhead contact line systems and for the complete renewal of existing overhead contact line systems.

This document does not apply to ground level conductor rail systems (see Figure 1).

NOTE Ground level conductor rail means conductor rails located adjacent to the running rail, e.g. the third rail or a conductor rail in the ground.
