TÜV NORD supports you with independent assessments and testing services on your journey towards a safe vehicle.
With our experts, we assist you in the following core areas, among others:
Mechanics: Strength, materials, welding technology
Electrics: Electrical protection, pantograph-catenary compatibility, control technology, electromagnetic compatibility
In matters of overarching importance: Noise emission, fire protection.
To be authorized for operation, rail vehicles must comply with a variety of standards. For mainline railways in Europe, these conditions are outlined in the Technical Specifications for Interoperability (TSI), and in each specific nation, they adhere to the National Notified Technical Rules (NNTR) as well as the Railway regulation and law. For trams, special regulations of each country must be followed, if in Germany, the decisive regulations are found in the German Construction and Operation Ordinance for Tramways (Bau- und Betriebsordnung von Straßenbahnen BOStrab).
Our professional expert team provides services or support to operators, system integrators and manufacturers in the field of rail transport for the qualification assessment of complete vehicles and individual vehicle components. In this context, we provide expert opinions and conduct the necessary EC conformity assessments on your behalf.
