Division 6.2.1 APPLICATION OF MODULES

United Kingdom

Original text. Later amendments are not shown.

The adjudicating entity or its authorised representative established within the Community may choose for the verification procedure of the on-board assembly of the control-command subsystem either:

  • the type-examination procedure (module SB) indicated in Annex E to this TSI for the design and development phase in combination with either the production quality assurance procedure (module SD) indicated in Annex E to this TSI for the production phase or the product verification procedure (module SF) indicated in Annex E to this TSI, or

  • the full quality assurance with design examination procedure (module SH2f1) indicated in Annex E to this TSI.

For the verification procedure of the trackside assembly of the control-command subsystem, the adjudicating entity or its authorised representative established within the Community may choose either:

  • the unit verification procedure (module SG) indicated in Annex E to this TSI, or

  • the type-examination procedure (module SB) indicated in Annex E to this TSI for the design and development phase in combination with either the production quality assurance procedure (module SD) indicated in Annex E to this TSI for the production phase or the product verification procedure (module SF) indicated in Annex E to this TSI, or

  • the full quality assurance with design examination procedure (module SH2) indicated in Annex E to this TSI.

The module SH2 may be chosen only where all activities contributing to the subsystem project to be verified (design, manufacturing, assembling, installation) are subject to a quality system for design, production, final product inspection and testing, approved and surveyed by a notified body.

    Functional integration test

    Tests to confirm correct functional operation of inter-working of a new combination of interoperability constituents

    Tests in the real configuration

    The notified body shall verify that the integration test requirements (issued by the Member State) for Annex B systems have been met

    The test includes the ability of the down-loading tool to read and display the safety data recorded

    Includes absence of unsafe interaction between interoperability constituents (possibly due to national add-ons)

integration test requirements for a specific Annex B system must be available in public domain when that system is put on the market for integration into an on-board assembly.
