Division 6.2.2 Application of modules

For the verification procedure of the rolling stock subsystem the adjudicating entity or its authorised representative established within the Community may choose either:

• the type-examination procedure (module SB) indicated in Annex F to this TSI for the design and development phase in combination with:

  • either the production quality assurance procedure (module SD) indicated in Annex F to this TSI,

  • or the product verification procedure (module SF) indicated in Annex F to this TSI for the production phase,

or alternatively

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

The SH2 module may be chosen only where all activities contributing to the rolling stock 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.

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

If these two above conditions are not fulfilled, the SB module in combination with the SF module is to be applied.

The assessment shall cover the phases and characteristics as indicated in Table 2, of Annex E to this TSI.
