Abstract:

This part of IS 17017 (Part 1): 2018, applies to electric road vehicle (EV) supply equipment for charging electric road vehicles, with a rated supply voltage up to 1 000 V a.c. or up to 1 500 V d.c. and a rated output voltage up to 1 000 V a.c. or up to 1 500 V d.c. Electric road vehicles (EV) cover all road vehicles, including plug-in hybrid road vehicles (PHEV), that derive all or part of their energy from on-board rechargeable energy storage systems (RESS). This standard also applies to EV supply equipment supplied from on-site storage systems (for example, buffer batteries).

The aspects covered in this standard include:

a) The characteristics and operating conditions of the EV supply equipment;

b) The specification of the connection between the EV supply equipment and the EV; and

c) The requirements for electrical safety for the EV supply equipment.

This standard; series covers all EV supply equipment with the exception of in-cable control and protection devices for Mode 2 charging of electric road vehicles (IC-CPD) which are covered by IEC 62752.
