1. Guide to this Catalogue
• develop requirements that are designed to control and/or help mitigate against identified safety and business risks;
• align those requirements (risk controls) to the relevant asset management lifecycle stages; and
• describe those requirements within a hierarchy of Network Rail standards.
NOTE 1: A standard might not be needed if there are no identified risks to be controlled.
NOTE 2: The Bow-Tie risk methodology may be used to identify risks and their controls.
NOTES
• Level 1, Level 2 and Level 3 standards are monitored for compliance on the Network Rail non-compliance database.
• Level 1 Network Rail standards shall specify the organisation’s objectives, goals, strategies and policy requirements.
• Level 1 standards provide the framework for business processes, assurance systems and controls specified at Level 2.
• Examples of Level 1 standards include Asset Management Policies and the Network Rail Drugs and Alcohol Policy.
• Level 2 Network Rail standards shall specify “what” is to be achieved.
• Level 2 standards outline business processes, assurance systems and controls.
• They provide the minimum requirements against which Level 3 processes can deliver.
• Examples of Level 2 standards are specifications, process requirements and product specifications.
• Level 3 Network Rail standards shall specify the “how to” tasks to be followed in order to deliver requirements specified in Level 2 standards.
• Examples of Level 3 standards are work instructions and process instructions.
• BCR control documents shall describe what needs to be achieved to meet identified controls for mitigating risks, including any tolerances and
limits if applicable.
• Guidance Notes shall provide guidance based on best practice.
• Guidance Notes are non-mandatory and are not monitored for compliance.

TSIs are mandated in the UK through The Railways (Interoperability) Regulations 2006, and apply to certain projects and routes. Where applicable,
TSIs take precedence over all other national standards, including Railway Group Standards and Network Rail standards.
Most of the Network Rail Standards are priced according to the number of pages in them and are divided into 6 main price bands; these price bands
are:
Price Band A B C D E F

The safety integrity of the signalling system is at risk if cable/wire insulation is allowed to degrade. This standard specifies:
• The requirements for inspections
• The precautions to be taken during inspections
• Constraints to be placed on work where degradation is detected, and
• Action to be taken to remove degraded wiring/installations.
When the insulation degrades, the inner conductor can become exposed and come into contact with other exposed wires and terminals. The risks
are that:
• Contacts are bypassed in a circuit
• Circuits are falsely energised
• Electrical shock, especially when carrying out hand tracing.

document has been amended to reflect the previous Engineering re-organisation and has had the requirements for Training and Competence

The majority of defects and wear detected in crossings are repairable if detected at an early enough stage. The identification and timely rectification
of crossing wear, or associated track condition issues, will reduce the risk of crossing failure or premature replacement.
The early detection of a crack in all steel grades is paramount.
The benefits of this standard are the early identification and rectification of defects which, when discovered in a timely manner, will prevent costly
replacement of crossings. Risks of crossing failure will also be reduced as a result.
This Network Rail standard specifies the requirements for the inspection and identification of defects and wear in crossings. The specification now
includes guidance for maintenance arc weld repair with appropriate minimum actions and also gives details of minimum actions to be taken when
significant defects are discovered.
This standard is intended to be read in conjunction with other standards concerning the inspection and rectification of defects in crossings.
