Where most automobile manufacturers have taken steps to ensure the safety of the vehicle occupants and other road users, above and beyond the requirements made by law, the effect of EMC on the rail rolling stock and signalling has the same implications as on a road vehicle.

Each electrical/electronic component which is designed to be installed, used near or on a railway track, is required to meet the EMC requirements of EN50121 for emissions and immunity. In some cases, EMC testing is part of the type approval process for incorporating electronic equipment onto the railway network. 3C Test Ltd has the capability of meeting the requirements of this standard and can help to ensure the reliability and the safety implications that EMC has on the railway network.
