THE EUROPEAN COMMISSION,

Having regard to the Treaty on the Functioning of the European Union,

Having regard to Directive 2008/57/EC of the European Parliament and of the Council of 17 June 2008 on the interoperability                           of the rail system within the Community(1), and in particular Article 6(1) thereof,                        

Whereas:

(1)Article 12 of Regulation (EC) No 881/2004 of the European Parliament and of the Council(2) requires the European Railway Agency (the Agency) to ensure that the technical specifications for interoperability (the TSIs)                              are adapted to technical progress, market trends and social requirements and to propose to the Commission the amendments to                              the TSIs which it considers necessary.

(2)By Decision C(2010) 2576 of 29 April 2010, the Commission gave the Agency a mandate to develop and review the TSIs with a                              view to extending their scope to the whole rail system in the Union. Under the terms of that mandate, the Agency was requested                              to extend the scope of the TSI relating to the subsystem ‘energy’, to the whole rail system in the Union.

(3)On 24 December 2012, the Agency issued a recommendation on the amendments to the TSI relating to the subsystem ‘energy’ (ERA/REC/11-2012/INT).

(4)In order to keep pace with technological progress and encourage modernisation, innovative solutions should be promoted and                              their implementation should, under certain conditions, be allowed. Where an innovative solution is proposed, the manufacturer                              or his authorised representative should state how it deviates from or how it complements the relevant section of the TSI,                              and the innovative solution should be assessed by the Commission. If this assessment is positive, the Agency should devise                              the appropriate functional and interface specifications of the innovative solution and develop the relevant assessment methods.

(5)The TSI energy established by this Regulation does not deal with all essential requirements. In accordance with Article 5(6)                              of Directive 2008/57/EC, technical aspects which are not covered by it should be identified as ‘open points’ governed by national                              rules applicable in each Member State.

(6)In accordance with Article 17(3) of Directive 2008/57/EC, Member States are to notify to the Commission and other Member States                              the conformity assessment and verification procedures to be used for the specific cases as well as the bodies responsible                              for carrying out these procedures. The same obligation should be provided as regards to open points.

(7)Rail traffic currently operates under existing national, bilateral, multinational or international agreements. It is important                              that these agreements do not hinder current and future progress towards interoperability. The Member States should therefore                              notify such agreements to the Commission.

(8)In accordance with Article 11(5) of Directive 2008/57/EC, the TSI on energy should allow, for a limited period of time, for                              interoperability constituents to be incorporated into subsystems without certification if certain conditions are met.

(9)Commission Decisions 2008/284/EC(3) and 2011/274/EU(4) should therefore be repealed.

(10)In order to prevent unnecessary additional costs and administrative burden, Decisions 2008/284/EC and 2011/274/EU should continue                              to apply after their repeal to the subsystems and projects referred to in Article 9(1)(a) of Directive 2008/57/EC.

(11)In order to ensure the interoperability of energy subsystem, a plan for a progressive implementation should be set out.

(12)As data collecting system gathers data from on-board energy measuring systems, Member States should ensure that a system capable                              to receive such data is developed and accepted for billing purposes.

(13)The measures provided for in this Regulation are in conformity with the opinion of the Committee established in accordance                              with Article 29(1) of Directive 2008/57/EC,

### 2.DESCRIPTION OF THE ENERGY SUBSYSTEMU.K.

#### 2.1.**Definition**U.K.

This TSI covers all fixed installations necessary to achieve interoperability that are required to supply traction energy                              to a train.                           

The energy subsystem consists of:

:

connected on the primary side to the high-voltage grid, with transformation of the high-voltage to a voltage and/or conversion                                 to a power supply system suitable for the trains. On the secondary side, substations are connected to the railway contact                                 line system;                              

:

electrical equipment located at intermediate locations between substations to supply and parallel contact lines and to provide                                 protection, isolation and auxiliary supplies;                              

:

equipment required to provide the transition between electrically different systems or between different phases of the same                                 electrical system;                              

:

a system that distributes the electrical energy to the trains running on the route and transmits it to the trains by means                                 of current collectors. The contact line system is also equipped with manually or remotely controlled disconnectors which are                                 required to isolate sections or groups of the contact line system according to operational necessity. Feeder lines are also                                 part of the contact line system;                              

:

all conductors which form the intended path for the traction return current. Therefore, so far as this aspect is concerned,                                 the return circuit is part of the energy subsystem and has an interface with the infrastructure subsystem.                              

[F4In accordance with Annex II, Section 2.2 of [F1Directive (EU) 2016/797], the trackside of the electricity consumption measuring system, referred to in this TSI as on-ground energy data collecting                                 system, is set out in point 4.2.17 of this TSI.]

##### 2.1.2.*Geometry of the overhead contact line (OCL) and quality of current collection*U.K.

The objective is to ensure reliable and continuous power transfer from the power supply system to the rolling stock. The interaction                              between the overhead contact line and the pantograph is an important aspect of interoperability.                           

Basic parameters referring to the geometry of the OCL and quality of current collection are set out in point 4.2.

#### 2.2.**Interfaces with other subsystems**U.K.

##### 2.2.1.*Introduction*U.K.

Rolling stock;

Infrastructure;

Trackside control command and signalling;

On-board control command and signalling;

Operation and traffic management.

Point 4.3 of this TSI sets out the functional and technical specification of these interfaces.

##### 2.2.2.*Interfaces of this TSI with the Safety in railway tunnels TSI*U.K.

Requirements relating to the energy subsystem for safety in railway tunnels are set out in the TSI relating to Safety in railway                     tunnels.                  

### 3.ESSENTIAL REQUIREMENTSU.K.

The following table indicates basic parameters of this TSI and their correspondence to the essential requirements as set out                     and numbered in Annex III of [F1Directive (EU) 2016/797].                  

### 4.CHARACTERISATION OF THE SUBSYSTEMU.K.

#### 4.1.**Introduction**U.K.

The whole rail system, to which [F1Directive (EU) 2016/797] applies and of which the energy subsystem is a part, is an integrated system whose consistency needs to be verified. This                              consistency must be checked, in particular, with regard to the specifications of the energy subsystem, its interfaces vis-à-vis                              the system in which it is integrated, as well as the operating and maintenance rules. The functional and technical specifications                              of the subsystem and its interfaces, described in points 4.2 and 4.3, do not impose the use of specific technologies or technical                              solutions, except where this is strictly necessary for the interoperability of the rail network.                           

Innovative solutions for interoperability, which do not fulfil requirements specified in this TSI and are not assessable as                              stated in this TSI, require new specifications and/or new assessment methods. In order to allow technological innovation,                              these specifications and assessment methods shall be developed by the process for innovative solutions described in points                              6.1.3 and 6.2.3.                           

Taking account of all the applicable essential requirements, the energy subsystem is characterised by the specifications set                              out in points 4.2 to 4.7.                           

Procedures for the EC verification of the energy subsystem are indicated in point 6.2.4 and Appendix B, Table B.1, of this                              TSI.                           

For specific cases, see point 7.4.

Where reference is made to EN standards in this TSI, any variations called ‘national deviations’ or ‘special national conditions’                              in the EN standards are not applicable and do not form part of this TSI.

The contact wire height and the lateral deviation of the contact wire under the action of a cross-wind are factors which govern                              the interoperability of the rail network.                           

###### 4.2.9.1.*Contact wire height*U.K.

The permissible data for contact wire height is given in Table 4.2.9.1.

For the relation between the contact wire heights and pantograph working heights see EN 50119:2009 figure 1.

At level crossings the contact wire height shall be specified by national rules or in the absence of national rules, according                              to EN 50122-1:2011, clauses 5.2.4 and 5.2.5.

In the case of the multi-rail track, the requirement for lateral deviation shall be fulfilled for each pair of rails (designed,                              to be operated as a separated track) that is intended to be assessed against TSI.                           

Track gauge system 1 520 mm:

For Member States applying the pantograph profile according to LOC&PAS TSI, point 4.2.8.2.9.2.3 the maximum lateral deviation                              of the contact wire in relation to the pantograph centre under action of a cross wind shall be 500 mm.                           

##### 4.2.10.*Pantograph gauge*U.K.

No part of the energy sub-system shall enter the mechanical kinematic pantograph gauge (see Appendix D figure D.2) except                              for the contact wire and steady arm.                           

The mechanical kinematic pantograph gauge for interoperable lines is specified using the method shown in Appendix D.1.2 and                              the pantograph profiles defined in LOC&PAS TSI, points 4.2.8.2.9.2.1 and 4.2.8.2.9.2.2.                           

This gauge shall be calculated using a kinematic method, with values:

for the pantograph sway epu of 0,110 m at the lower verification height h′u = 5,0 m and                                    

for the pantograph sway epo of 0,170 m at the upper verification height h′o = 6,5 m,                                    

in accordance with point D.1.2.1.4 of Appendix D and other values in accordance with point D.1.3 of Appendix D.

Track gauge system 1 520 mm:

For Member States applying the pantograph profile according to LOC&PAS TSI, point 4.2.8.2.9.2.3 the static gauge available                              for pantograph is defined in point D.2 of Appendix D.                           

##### 4.2.11.*Mean contact force*U.K.

The mean contact force Fm is the statistical mean value of the contact force. Fm is formed by the static, dynamic and aerodynamic components of the pantograph contact force.                           

The ranges of Fm for each of the power supply systems are defined in EN 50367:2012 Table 6.                           

The overhead contact lines shall be designed to be capable to sustain the upper design limit of Fm given in EN 50367:2012 Table 6.                           

[F1The curves apply to speed up to 360 km/h. For speeds above 360 km/h procedures set out in point 6.1.3 shall apply.]                            

##### 4.2.12.*Dynamic behaviour and quality of current collection*U.K.

Depending on the assessment method, the overhead contact line shall achieve the values of dynamic performance and contact                              wire uplift (at the design speed) set out in Table 4.2.12.                           

S0 is the calculated, simulated or measured uplift of the contact wire at a steady arm, generated in normal operating conditions                              with one or more pantographs with the upper limit of Fm at the maximum line speed. When the uplift of the steady arm is physically limited due to the overhead contact line design,                              it is permissible for the necessary space to be reduced to 1,5S0 (refer to EN 50119:2009, clause 5.10.2).                           

Maximum force (Fmax) is usually within the range of Fm plus three standard deviations σmax; higher values may occur at particular locations and are given in EN 50119:2009, table 4, clause 5.2.5.2. For rigid components                              such as section insulators in overhead contact line systems, the contact force can increase up to a maximum of 350 N.                           

##### 4.2.13.*Pantograph spacing for overhead contact line design*U.K.

[F4The overhead contact line shall be designed for a minimum of two pantographs operating adjacently. The design spacing of the                        two adjacent pantograph heads, centre line to centre line, shall be equal or lower than values set out in one column ‘A’, ‘B’, or ‘C’ selected from Table 4.2.13:]                   

###### *Table 4.2.13*

**Pantograph spacing for OCL design**

##### 4.2.14.*Contact wire material*U.K.

The combination of contact wire material and contact strip material has a strong impact on the wear of contact strips and                              contact wire.                           

Permissible contact strip materials are defined in point 4.2.8.2.9.4.2 of LOC&PAS TSI.

Permissible materials for contact wires are copper and copper-alloy. The contact wire shall comply with the requirements of                              EN 50149:2012, clauses 4.2, (excluding the reference to annex B of the standard) 4.3 and 4.6 to 4.8.                           

##### 4.2.15.*Phase separation sections*U.K.

###### 4.2.15.1.*General*U.K.

The design of phase separation sections shall ensure that trains can move from one section to an adjacent one without bridging                              the two phases. Power consumption of the train (traction, auxiliaries and no-load current of the transformer) shall be brought                              to zero before entering the phase separation section. Adequate means (except for the short separation section) shall be provided                              to allow a train that is stopped within the phase separation section to be restarted.                           

The overall length D of neutral sections is defined in EN 50367:2012, clause 4. For the calculation of D clearances in accordance                              to EN 50119:2009, clause 5.1.3 and an uplift of S0 shall be taken into account.                           

###### 4.2.15.2.*Lines with speed v ≥ 250 km/h*U.K.

Two types of designs of phase separation sections may be adopted, either:

a phase separation design where all the pantographs of the longest TSI compliant trains are within the neutral section. The                              overall length of the neutral section shall be at least 402 m.                           

For detailed requirements see EN 50367:2012, Annex A.1.2, or

a shorter phase separation with three insulated overlaps as shown in EN 50367:2012, Annex A.1.4. The overall length of the                              neutral section is less than 142 m including clearances and tolerances.                           

###### 4.2.15.3.*Lines with speed v < 250 km/h*U.K.

The design of separation sections shall normally adopt solutions as described in EN 50367:2012, Annex A.1. Where an alternative                     solution is proposed, it shall be demonstrated that the alternative is at least as reliable.                  

##### 4.2.16.*System separation sections*U.K.

###### 4.2.16.1.*General*U.K.

The design of system separation sections shall ensure that trains can move from one power supply system to an adjacent different                              power supply system without bridging the two systems. There are two methods for traversing system separation sections:                           

with pantograph raised and touching the contact wire;

with pantograph lowered and not touching the contact wire.

The neighbouring Infrastructure Managers shall agree either (a) or (b) according to the prevailing circumstances.

The overall length D of neutral sections is defined in EN 50367:2012, clause 4. For the calculation of D clearances in accordance                              to EN 50119:2009, clause 5.1.3 and an uplift of S0 shall be taken into account.                           

###### 4.2.16.2.*Pantographs raised*U.K.

Power consumption of the train (traction, auxiliaries and no-load current of the transformer) shall be brought to zero before                              entering the system separation section.                           

If system separation sections are traversed with pantographs raised to the contact wire, their functional design is specified                              as follows:                           

the geometry of different elements of the overhead contact line shall prevent pantographs short-circuiting or bridging both                                       power systems;                                    

provision shall be made in the energy subsystem to avoid bridging of both adjacent power supply systems should the opening                                       of the on-board circuit breaker(s) fail;                                    

variation in contact wire height along the entire separation section shall fulfil requirements set in EN 50119:2009, clause                                       5.10.3.                                    

###### 4.2.16.3.*Pantographs lowered*U.K.

This option shall be chosen if the conditions of operation with pantographs raised cannot be met.

If a system separation section is traversed with pantographs lowered, it shall be designed so as to avoid the electrical connection                              of the two power supply systems by an unintentionally raised pantograph.

#### 6.1.**Interoperability constituents**U.K.

##### 6.1.1.*Conformity assessment procedures*U.K.

The conformity assessment procedures of interoperability constituents as defined in Section 5 of this TSI shall be carried                              out by application of relevant modules.                           

Assessment procedures for particular requirements for interoperability constituent are set out in point 6.1.4.

##### 6.1.2.*Application of modules*U.K.

The following modules for conformity assessment of interoperability constituents are used:

Conformity to type based on internal production control

Conformity based on full quality management system

Conformity based on full quality management system plus design examination

The modules for conformity assessment of interoperability constituents shall be chosen from those shown in Table 6.1.2.

In the case of products placed on the market before the publication of relevant TSIs, the type is considered to have been                              approved and therefore EC type examination (module CB) is not necessary, provided that the manufacturer demonstrates that                              tests and verification of interoperability constituents have been considered successful for previous applications under comparable                              conditions and are in conformity with the requirements of this TSI. In this case these assessments shall remain valid in the                              new application. If it is not possible to demonstrate that the solution is positively proven in the past, the procedure for                              ICs placed on the EU market after publication of this TSI applies.                           

##### 6.1.3.*Innovative solutions for interoperability constituents*U.K.

If an innovative solution is proposed for an interoperability constituent, the procedure described in Article 10 of this Regulation                     shall apply.                  

##### 6.1.4.*Particular assessment procedure for the interoperability constituent — overhead contact line*U.K.

###### 6.1.4.1.*Assessment of dynamic behaviour and quality of current collection*U.K.

Methodology:

The assessment of the dynamic behaviour and the quality of the current collection involves the overhead contact line (energy                                       subsystem) and the pantograph (rolling stock subsystem).                                    

Compliance with the requirements on dynamic behaviour shall be verified by assessment of:
                      -  Contact wire uplift  and either: 
                      -  Mean contact force Fm and standard deviation σmax                                             or 
                      -  Percentage of arcing 

The Contracting Entity shall declare the method to be used for verification.

The design of overhead contact line shall be assessed with a simulation tool validated according with EN 50318:2002 and by                                       measurement according to EN 50317:2012.                                    

If an existing OCL design has been in operation for at least 20 years, then the requirement for simulation defined in the                                       point (2) is optional. The measurement as defined in point (3) shall be carried out for the worst case arrangements of the                                       pantographs regarding the interaction performance of this particular OCL design.                                    

The measurement can be conducted on a specially constructed test section or on a line where the overhead contact line is under                                       construction.                                    

Simulation:

For the purposes of simulation and analysis of the results, representative features (for example tunnels, crossovers, neutral                                       sections etc.) shall be taken into account.                                    

The simulations shall be made using at least two different TSI compliant types of pantograph for the appropriate speed(9) and supply system, up to the design speed of the proposed interoperability constituent overhead contact line.                                    

It is allowed to perform the simulation using types of pantograph that are under the process of IC certification, provided                                       that they fulfil the other requirements of LOC&PAS TSI.                                    

The simulation shall be performed for single pantograph and multiple pantographs with spacing according to the requirements                                       set in point 4.2.13.                                    

In order to be acceptable, the simulated current collection quality shall be in accordance with point 4.2.12 for uplift, mean                                       contact force and standard deviation for each of the pantographs.                                    

Measurement:

If the simulation results are acceptable, a site dynamic test with a representative section of the new overhead contact line                                       shall be undertaken.                                    

This measurement can be done before putting into service or under full operation conditions.

For the above mentioned site test, one of the two types of the pantograph chosen for the simulation shall be installed on                                       a rolling stock that allows the appropriate speed on the representative section.                                    

The tests shall be performed at least for the worst case arrangements of the pantographs regarding the interaction performance                                       derived from the simulations. If it is not possible to test using spacing between pantographs of 8 m, then it is permissible,                                       for tests at speeds of up to 80 km/h, to increase the spacing between two consecutive pantographs to up to 15 m.                                    

The mean contact force of each pantograph shall fulfil the requirements of the point 4.2.11 up to envisaged design speed of                                       the OCL under test.                                    

In order to be acceptable, the measured current collection quality shall be in accordance with point 4.2.12, for uplift, and                                       either the mean contact force and standard deviation or percentage of arcing.                                    

If all the above assessments are passed successfully, the tested overhead contact line design shall be considered to be compliant                                       and may be used on lines where the characteristics of the design are compatible.

This study shall be carried out only in the case of introducing converters with active semi-conductors in the power supply                              system.                           

The notified body shall assess if criteria of EN 50388:2012, clause 10.4 are fulfilled.

###### 6.2.4.5.*Assessment of dynamic behaviour and quality of current collection (integration into a subsystem)*U.K.

The main goal of this test is to identify allocation design and construction errors but not to assess the basic design in                              principle.                           

Measurements of the interaction parameters shall be carried out in accordance with EN 50317:2012.

These measurements shall be carried out with an interoperability constituent pantograph, exhibiting the mean contact force                              characteristics as required by point 4.2.11 of this TSI for the design speed of the line considering aspects related to minimum                              speed and siding tracks.                           

The installed overhead contact line shall be accepted if the measurement results comply with the requirements in point 4.2.12.

For operational speeds up to 120 km/h (AC systems) and up to 160 km/h (DC systems), measurement of the dynamic behaviour is                              not mandatory. In this case alternative methods of identifying construction errors shall be used, such as measurement of OCL                              geometry according to point 4.2.9.

###### D.1.1.1*Space to be cleared for electrified lines*U.K.

In the case of lines electrified by an overhead contact line, an additional space should be cleared:
          -  to accommodate the OCL equipment, 
          -  to allow the free passage of the pantograph. 

This Appendix deals with the free passage of the pantograph (pantograph gauge). The electrical clearance is considered by                     the Infrastructure Manager.                  

###### D.1.1.2*Particularities*U.K.

The pantograph gauge differs in some aspects from the obstacle gauge:
          -  The pantograph is (partly) live and, for this reason, an electrical clearance is to be complied with, according to the nature                           of the obstacle (insulated or not),                         
          -  The presence of insulating horns should be taken into account, where necessary. Therefore a double reference contour has to                           be defined to take account of the mechanical and electrical interference simultaneously,                         
          -  In collecting condition, the pantograph is in permanent contact with the contact wire and, for this reason, its height is                           variable. So is the height of the pantograph gauge.

The pantograph gauge is only met if the mechanical and electrical gauges are complied with simultaneously:
          -  The free passage reference profile includes the pantograph collector head length and the pantograph sway ep, which applies up to the reference cant or cant deficiency,                         
          -  Live and insulated obstacles shall remain outside the mechanical gauge, 
          -  Non insulated obstacles (earthed or at a potential different from the OCL) shall remain outside the mechanical and electrical                           gauges.                         

##### D.1.2**Specification of the mechanical kinematic pantograph gauge**U.K.

###### D.1.2.1*Specification of the width of the mechanical gauge*U.K.

###### D.1.2.1.1*Scope*U.K.

The width of the pantograph gauge is mainly specified by the length and displacements of the pantograph under consideration.                     Beyond specific phenomena, phenomena similar to those of the obstacle gauge are found in the transverse displacements.                  

The pantograph gauge shall be considered at the following heights:
          -  The upper verification height *h′o*                          
          -  The lower verification height *h′u*                          

Between those two heights, it can be considered that gauge width varies in a linear way.

The various parameters are shown in figure D.2.

###### D.1.2.1.2*Calculation methodology*U.K.

The pantograph gauge width shall be specified by the sum of the parameters defined below. In the case of a line run by various                     pantographs, the maximum width should be considered.                  

For the lower verification point with h = *h′u*:                  

For the upper verification point with h = *h′o*:                  

Note i/a = inside/outside curve.U.K.                  

For any intermediate height h, width is specified by means of an interpolation:

###### D.1.2.1.3*Half-length bw of the pantograph bow*U.K.

The half-length *bw* of the pantograph bow depends on the type of pantograph used. The pantograph profile(s) to be considered are defined in LOC&PAS                     TSI, point 4.2.8.2.9.2.                  

###### D.1.2.1.4*Pantograph sway ep*U.K.

The sway mainly depends on the following phenomena:
          -  Play *q + w* in the axle boxes and between bogie and body.                         
          -  The amount of body inclination taken into account by the vehicle (depending on the specific flexibility *s0′*, the reference cant *D′0* and the reference cant deficiency *I′0*).                         
          -  The mounting tolerance of the pantograph on the roof. 
          -  The transverse flexibility of the mounting device on the roof. 
          -  The height under consideration *h′*.                         

*Figure D.2*

**Specification of the width of the mechanical kinematic gauge of the pantograph at different heights**

###### D.1.2.1.5*Additional overthrows*U.K.

The pantograph gauge has a specific additional overthrows. In case of standard track gauge the following formula applies:

For other track gauges the national rules apply.

###### D.1.2.1.6*Quasi-static effect*U.K.

Since the pantograph is installed on the roof, the quasi-static effect plays an important role in the calculation of the pantograph                     gauge. That effect is calculated from the specific flexibility *s0′*, reference cant *D′0* and reference cant deficiency *I′0*:                  

*Note*: Pantographs are normally mounted on the roof of a power unit, whose reference flexibility s0′ is generally smaller than that of the obstacle gauge s0.U.K.                  

###### D.1.2.1.7*Allowances*U.K.

According to gauge definition, the following phenomena should be considered:
          -  Loading dissymmetry; 
          -  The transverse displacement of the track between two successive maintenance actions; 
          -  The cant variation occurring between two successive maintenance actions; 
          -  Oscillations generated by track unevenness. 

[X1The sum of the abovementioned allowances is covered by Σj.]                   

###### D.1.2.2*Specification of the height of the mechanical gauge*U.K.

Gauge height shall be specified on the basis of the static height *hcc*, of the contact wire at the local point under consideration. The following parameters should be considered:                  
          -  The raising *fs* of the contact wire generated by the pantograph contact force. The value of *fs* depends on the OCL type and so shall be specified by the Infrastructure Manager in accordance with point 4.2.12.                         
          -  The raising of the pantograph head due to the pantograph head skew generated by the staggered contact point and the wear of                           the collector strip *fws* + *fwa*. The permissible value of *fws* is shown in LOC & PAS TSI and *fwa* depends on maintenance requirements.                         

The height of the mechanical gauge is given by the following formula:

##### D.1.3**Reference parameters**U.K.

Parameters for the kinematic mechanical pantograph gauge and for Specification of the maximum lateral deviation of the contact                     wire shall be as follows:                  
          -  l — according to track gauge 
          -  s′o = 0,225                         
          -  h′co = 0,5 m                         
          -  I′0 = 0,066 m and D′0 = 0,066 m                         
          -  h′o = 6,500 m and h′u = 5,000 m                         

##### D.1.4**Calculation of maximum lateral deviation of contact wire**U.K.

The maximum lateral deviation of the contact wire shall be calculated by taking into consideration the total movement of the                     pantograph with respect to the nominal track position and the conducting range (or working length, for pantographs without                     horns made from a conducting material) as follows:
