EN 45545-2 Fire Protection Test on Railway Vehicles

EN 45545-2 Fire Protection Test on Railway Vehicles

In EN 45545-2, test product numbers are assigned according to the product family (classification according to the application), and the R number, which is the test requirement number, is determined according to the product number. 

EN 45545-2 Fire Protection Test on Railway Vehicles

The test is done according to the detailed procedure in each selected standard according to the R number, and the result decides whether the value meets the design criteria.
