The PKP class EP03 is a type of electric locomotive used by Polish railway operator Polskie Koleje Państwowe (PKP).

In 1946 PKP purchased eight locomotives from the Swedish manufacturer Allmänna Svenska Elektriska Aktiebolaget (ASEA) of a type not used in Sweden.
EP03 locomotives were introduced in 1951–1952. Their main purpose was operating light passenger and freight trains.
