About This Item
Full Description
This Standard specifies the evaluation of new or modified products for use on Australasian railway network infrastructure and defines:
- the assessment criteria;
- the information required;
- the submission format; and
- the approval outcome and supporting information.
This Standard details the process requirements of appropriate type approval assessment and the issuing of the type approval certification.
This Standard is intended to be applied by RTOs to regulate the use of railway products on their network.
This Standard is applied for new or modified products and is not intended to be retrospectively applied.
Rolling Stock, its associated equipment, and the on-track plant are excluded from the scope of this Standard.
Heritage Railways are excluded from this Standard unless there is an interface with a non-Heritage Railway.
This Standard excludes new or modified products in the following applications:
- The product is not covered by RTO specific requirements and is certified to comply with a relevant national or international standard.
- The product in its proposed application does not have the potential to adversely affect railway operations or safety.
- The product is raw material, quarry products or an engineering structure.
The final determination of whether any item requires type approval shall be made by the RTO. The RTOs remain responsible for ensuring that any risks introduced by new products are controlled so far as is reasonably practicable (SFAIRP).
Type approval is a risk-based process that efficiently allows the RTO to accept new or modified products for use on its infrastructure in the RTO’s network.
