What is EN 50129?

EN 50129 is a European standard that establishes the safety requirements for electronic and programmable electronic systems used in railway applications. It focuses on the development and assessment of safety-critical systems, ensuring their compliance with safety integrity levels (SIL) through rigorous processes and documentation. The standard defines the structure and purpose of a Safety Case, a key document that demonstrates the safety of a system throughout its lifecycle. It also emphasizes hazard identification, risk assessment, and the implementation of safety measures to control risks effectively.

The standard outlines specific requirements for hardware and software integration, verification, and validation, ensuring that safety-critical systems perform reliably under all conditions. EN 50129 works in conjunction with other related standards, such as EN 50126 and EN 50128, to provide a comprehensive framework for railway system safety. By adhering to EN 50129, organizations ensure that their systems meet the highest safety standards, reducing the risk of failures and ensuring compliance with European safety regulations.
