SUMMARY:EMC Management: How to Achieve Electromagnetic Compliance
DESCRIPTION:  \n  \n  \n  \n  \nOverview \nElectrification of railways brings its own unique problems due to the high amount of energy required to operate a modern electric train. When Electromagnetic Interference (EMI) unintentionally affects signalling systems and trackside equipment there can be detrimental consequences. The management of electrical energy is a strict requirement for safety in the rail corridor\, and the ARISO Standard Electromagnetic Compliance (EMC) Management (AS 7722) provides the framework to maintain electrical safety in this highly charged electrical environment. \nThis presentation will go through the impact that electrical systems can have on each other\, and how to achieve electromagnetic compliance in the rail corridor through the various stages of the project. A brief overview of the relevant standards and how they apply within the rail corridor will provide a basis for ensuring safety is achieved when all the processes\, procurement and construction activities have been performed with EMC taken into consideration. \nThis event will be delivered as a hybrid event. For those not available to join face to face\, please see below the teams link. \nTeams link  \nPlease note\, for those planning to attend face to face\, an RSVP is essential for catering and room capacity purposes \nLearning Outcomes \nBy attending this presentation\, participants will: \n\nUnderstand how electromagnetic energy can impact electrical systems to cause equipment to malfunction\nUnderstand the basic minimum requirements that a rail project must adhere to meet EMC Compliance Standards\nUnderstand the project stages where EMC compliance is fundamental to success\n\nBiography \nBradley Smith was born in Brisbane although lived in rural Queensland for ten years through his high school days. His engineering career began in Optus as a graduate engineer on the mobile phone 2G network and over a period of 20 years his final role in the company was as technical project manager introducing the new Nokia and Huawei features across 2G\, 3G and 4G across the Optus network. From 2020 to 2024 he joined UGL and was the Principal Telecommunications Engineer for the Cross River Rail Tunnel and Stations Development. It was on Cross River Rail project that he developed an interest in EMC\, as an extension of his radiofrequency knowledge and experience\, and how it applies to the rail industry. Bradley has recently been involved in the review of Standards for RISSB / ARISO to provide feedback for the rail industry topics such as Communications in the Rail Corridor and EMC Management\, amongst others. He is currently working on the digitalisation of trains with ETCS in Sydney and Brisbane. Bradley Smith is a Fellow of the Institution of Engineers Australia.
