European foreword
This document (prEN 1463-3:2017) has been prepared by Technical Committee CEN/TC 226 “Road
equipment”, the secretariat of which is held by AFNOR.
This document is currently submitted to the CEN Enquiry.
This document has been prepared under a mandate given to CEN by the European Commission and the
European Free Trade Association, and supports essential requirements of Regulation (EU) Nr.
305/2011.
For relationship with Regulation (EU) Nr. 305/2011, see informative Annex ZA, which is an integral
part of this document.
Introduction
An active road stud is a horizontal guiding device that is fixed to the surface of a road and emits light in
order to warn, guide or inform road users.
An active road stud provides a light output by itself, while a retroreflective road stud provides
retroreflected light when illuminated by the headlamps of a vehicle. Retroreflective road studs are
covered by EN 1463-1:2009.
An active road stud may be fitted with a retroreflector so that it provides a light output both directly
and by retroreflection.
An active road stud may be self-contained in the sense that it incorporates all light generation means
and does not rely on an external source of light or power. Light generation means include one or more
light sources, typically LED’s, and a power supply, typically a battery that is charged by a solar panel
integrated in the upper surface of the road stud.
As opposed to a self-contained active road stud, an active road stud may also be hardwired in the sense
that it receives light through fibre optics or power through a wire. Means to feed light or power are not
considered in this standard.
An active road stud may have one or more luminous faces intended for emitting light in one or more
traffic directions.
An active road stud may emit light that appears constant to the human eye or be flashing at a low
frequency. The emitted light may be any of the colours white, yellow, orange, red, green or blue.
As with a retroreflective road stud, an active road stud may fixed to a road surface by being bonded too,
entered within or embedded within the road surface. Additionally, an active road stud may be
depressible or non-depressible. Finally, an active road stud may be intended for permanent or
temporary installation.
1 Scope
This standard specifies the initial performance requirements and laboratory test methods for solar
powered, hardwired and communicating active road studs intended for use as permanent and
temporary road marking materials.
