This will be achieved by using the electrotechnical methods and testing defined in this standard.<\/p>\n<p>Where Road Traffic Signal Systems are to be used with other systems, e.g. public lighting or railway signalling and communication, this document will be used with any other respective standard(s) for the other associated systems to ensure that overall safety is not compromised.<\/p>\n<p>This document is applicable to traffic signal control equipment permanently and temporarily installed, and portable traffic control equipment, with the exception of portable traffic signal equipment only
