Scope

Defines the general assembly characteristics which are to be applied to pantographs for metros and light rail vehicles, to enable current collection from the overhead line system. Also defines the tests the pantographs have to perform, excluding insulators.
Does not apply to pantograph dielectric tests, which are to be performed on the pantograph installed on the vehicle roof.
These rules in so far as they are applicable are also valid for trolley buses.
Does not apply to pantographs used on main line vehicles: these pantographs are considered in IEC 60494-1.
Relates to conventional suspended overhead line systems and accessories. The systems (or part of them) which are rigidly suspended will require special consideration between the customer and the supplier.
