Definition

Vehicle

Railway vehicle as defined in Article 2(c) of Directive 2008/57/EC.

Type

Vehicle type as defined in Article 2(w) of Directive 2008/57/EC. Type must reflect the unit that has been subject of the conformity assessment and authorisation. This unit may be a single vehicle, a rake of vehicles or a trainset.

Version

Version of a type as covered by the type examination certificate.

Manufacturer

Any natural or legal person who manufacturers a vehicle or has a vehicle designed or manufactured, and markets that vehicle under his name or trademark. The indication of manufacturer in ERATV is for reference only; it is without prejudice to the intellectual property rights, contractual responsibilities or civil liability.

Authorisation holder

Entity that applied for and received the authorisation of type of vehicle.

Restriction

Any condition or limitation indicated in the authorisation of type of vehicle that applies to placing in service or use of any vehicle in conformity with this type. Restrictions do not include technical characteristics that are included in Section 4 of Annex II (List and format of parameters).

Modification of authorisation

Decision taken by a national safety authority according to which certain conditions of an authorisation for a type of vehicle previously issued by this national safety authority need to be changed. Modification of authorisation may include, but is not limited to, restrictions, modification of validity date, renewal of authorisation after a change in the rules.

Suspension of authorisation

Decision taken by a national safety authority according to which an authorisation for a vehicle type is temporarily not valid and no vehicle may be authorised to be placed in service on the basis of its conformity to the given type, until the causes that motivated the suspension have not been analysed. Suspension of authorisation for a vehicle type does not apply to the vehicles already in service.

Reactivation of authorisation

Decision taken by a national safety authority according to which a suspension of authorisation it previously issued no longer applies.

Withdrawal of authorisation

Decision taken by a national safety authority according to which an authorisation for a vehicle type is no longer valid and no vehicle may be authorised to be placed in service on the basis of its conformity to the given type. Withdrawal of authorisation for a vehicle type does not apply to the vehicles already in service.

Error

Transmitted or published data that do not correspond to the given authorisation for type of vehicle. Modification of authorisation does not fall under this definition.
