4 Part 1 Purpose and Introduction 1.1 Purpose This document sets out the energy metering and data handling requirements for electric traction units when fitted with an energy measuring system The on-board energy measuring system will provide (via a on-ground data collection service) data to be used by the infrastructure manager to produce a bill which is invoiced to the railway undertakings. 1.2 Introduction Background Track access contracts will be amended to allow for billing on the basis of metered readings. In support of this, the Office of Rail Regulation (ORR) determined that metered billing for traction energy electricity must be facilitated by Network Rail. Whilst other specifications / standards are being developed (the Conventional Rail Locomotives and Passenger TSI (CR LOC & PAS TSI) [draft version 4.0] and revised version of BS EN 50463:2007) they are not anticipated to be available until circa 2011/2 and are primarily focussed on new rolling stock entering service This document facilitates early adoption of the on-board energy measuring system which provides data suitable for subsequent use in the billing system prior to the publication of the CR LOC & PAS TSI and ongoing work to produce a revised issue of BS EN 50463:2007. In addition, this document will also be needed once the TSI is in force, to address: a) Those vehicles not covered by the TSI. b) Associated aspects falling outside the TSI s scope such as the transfer of data from on-board systems to on-ground systems An on-board energy measuring system fitted to a traction unit measures the energy taken from / returned (during regenerative braking) to the contact line. It is specifically used to acquire energy data suitable for billing purposes Principles The requirements set out in this document are based on the CR LOC & PAS TSI [draft version 4.0] and ongoing work to produce a revised issue of BS EN 50463: This document sets out those requirements that involve cooperation between railway undertakings and infrastructure managers in order to enable data from an on-board energy measuring system to be used when participating in the billing system. 1.3 Approval and authorisation of this document The content of this document was approved by Rolling Stock Standards Committee on 30 June This document was authorised by on 20 July Page 4 of 24

13 Appendix A Record and Data Formats The content of this appendix is mandatory and specifies the requirements related to the format and transfer of the compiled data from the on-board data handling system to the on-ground data collection service. A.1 Compiled data record transmission format A.1.1 The compiled data relevant to each reference period shall be retrieved from the data handling system memory. The compiled data is used to prepare the records to be transferred as a compiled data file of 128 records. Note: a) The choice of a compiled data file size of 128 records is a trade-off between file length and transmission duration. This allows data to be transmitted with each file covering approximately 12 hours of recorded data; consequently approximately two files are transferred per day. b) Compiled data is not manipulated, only casting operations (to organise the stored data payload along with accompanying information into the record format ready for transmission to ground) are performed. A.1.2 After preparing the compiled data file of 128 records in the transmission buffer (including their application cyclic redundancy check (CRC) as the last field of each record) and prior to data file transmission, the compiled data in each record shall be verified against the corresponding compiled data stored in the data handling system's memory. Note: The red text in Table A.1 indicates optional data for those on-board energy measuring systems on dual voltage traction units capable of providing energy consumption and regeneration data separately for each of the traction power supply system. For example, energy data associated with the 25 kv a.c. system would be recorded as Channel A and energy data associated with the 750 V d.c.system would be recorded as Channel B. Page 13 of 24

19 Appendix C Arrangement for Metering Points on 3rd Rail 750 V d.c. Rail Vehicles The content of this appendix is not mandatory and is provided for guidance only. C.1 Typical arrangement for metering points on 3 rd Rail 750 V d.c. rail vehicles C.1.1 It is recommended that traction units designed to operate using the 750 V d.c. traction system should measure from metering points that are the main feeds into the traction and auxiliaries on the train. Figure C.1 shows a typical arrangement showing four metering points on a train. By measuring at the take off points from the busline rather than the shoe currents, this excludes the current that flows through the train from being measured. It should also be noted that if measurement is to be undertaken at the shoe gear the presence of any busline current flowing through the train should not degrade the accuracy of the energy measurement function.

22 Uncontrolled When Printed Highest permanent voltage (U max1 ) Maximum value of the voltage likely to be present indefinitely, as defined in BS EN 50163:2004. Influence quantities A condition, generally external to a device containing any function of the energy measuring function, which may affect its metrological performance. Internet protocol The basic communication language or protocol of the Internet. Logical addressing The address used to identify a function within an item or device. Lowest non-permanent voltage (U min2 ) Minimum value of the voltage likely to be present for a limited period of time, as defined in BS EN 50163:2004. Lowest permanent voltage (U min1 ) Minimum value of voltage likely to be present indefinitely, as defined in BS EN 50163:2004. Metrological control Metrological control ensures the accuracy and reliability of measurement, where measured values (produced by devices implementing the energy measuring function) can affect the transparency of financial transactions. Non-authorised access Access to any part of the energy measuring system and the associated data by an entity not having the authorisation to do so. On-ground data collection service On-ground service capable of collecting the compiled data from the on-board energy measuring system. Physical addressing The address used to identify a unique item or device. Regenerated active energy (kwh) The active energy fed back into the contact line during regeneration by the traction unit on which the energy measuring system is installed. Regenerated reactive energy (kvarh) The reactive energy fed back into the contact line during regeneration by the traction unit on which the energy measuring system is installed. Temperature coefficient The ratio of variation of the percentage error to the change of temperature which produces this variation. Time reference period Period over which energy billing data is produced. Page 22 of 24

23 Total accuracy The total accuracy (of the energy measuring function) is expressed in terms of the maximum allowable percentage error (for example ±1.5%). The accuracy is determined by calculation, and is derived from the maximum error of the voltage measurement function, the current measurement function and the energy calculation function, when tested under the specified reference conditions. See 2.2.5, and for further information. Traction unit A vehicle or consist of vehicles in fixed formation, for which the energy taken from and / or returned to the contact line is to be measured by an on-board energy measuring system. Type test Conformity assessment test carried out to verify that an on-board energy measuring system of a given design meets the requirements of this document. UTC clock time A time scale which forms the basis of a coordinated radio dissemination of standard time signals. It corresponds exactly in rate with international atomic time, but differs from it by an integral number of seconds. Note 1: Coordinated universal time is established by the International Bureau of Weights and Measures (BIPM) and the International Earth Rotation Service (IERS). Note 2: The UTC clock time source is adjusted by the insertion or deletion of seconds, so called positive or negative leap seconds, to ensure approximate agreement with UT1. World Geodetic System A consistent set of parameters describing the size and shape of the Earth, the positions of a network of points with respect to the centre of mass of the Earth, transformations from major geodetic datums, and the potential of the Earth (usually in terms of harmonic coefficients).
