Electric cables - Charging cables for electric vehicles
This standard specifies design, dimensions and test requirements for halogen-free cables with extruded insulation and sheath having a voltage rating of up to and including 450/750 V for flexible applications under severe condition for the power supply between the electricity supply point or the charging station and the vehicle. The EV charging cable is intended to supply power and if needed communication (details see IEC 61851 series and IEC 62196 series) to an electric vehicle. The charging cables are applicable for charging modes 1-3 of IEC 61851-1. Cables with rated voltage 300/500 V are only permitted for charging mode 1 of IEC 61851-1. The maximum conductor operating temperatures for the cables in this standard is 90°C. The cables may be a) an integral part of the vehicle (case A of IEC 61851-1), or b) a detachable cable assembly with a vehicle connector and AC supply connection to a socket outlet (case B of IEC 61851-1), or c) permanently attached to a fixed charging point (case C of IEC 61851-1). This standard describes cables whose safety and reliability is ensured when they are installed and/or used in accordance to the guide to use EN 50565-1 and ANNEX B.
Kabel und Leitungen - Ladeleitung für Elektrofahrzeuge
Diese Norm legt Aufbauten, Abmessungen und Prüfanforderungen von halogenfreien Leitungen mit extrudierter Isolierhülle und Mantel fest, die für Nennspannungen bis einschließlich 450/750 V ausgelegt sind. Die Leitung ist bestimmt für den flexiblen Einsatz bei schwerer Beanspruchung zwischen Netz oder Ladestation und dem Fahrzeug. Die Ladeleitung ist bestimmt für die Übertragung von Energie und gegebenenfalls zur Datenübertragung (näheres siehe Reihe IEC 61851 und Reihe IEC 62196) zum Elektrofahrzeug. Die Ladeleitungen sind geeignet für die Lademodi 1-3 nach IEC 61851 1. Für Ladeleitungen mit einer Nennspannung von 300/500 V ist ausschließlich die Ladebetriebsart 1 nach IEC 61851 1 zulässig. Die maximale Betriebstemperatur am Leiter für die in dieser Norm behandelten Leitungen beträgt 90 °C. Die Leitungen können a) ein fest eingebauter Bestandteil des Fahrzeuges sein (Fall A von EN 61851-1, oder b) eine lösbaren Ladeleitungsgarnitur mit Fahrzeugkupplungen am Fahrzeug und einem Wechsel-stromversorgungsanschluss an einer Steckdose (Fall B von EN 61851-1), oder c) fest an der Ladestation angebracht sein (Fall C von EN 61851-1). Die Sicherheit und Zuverlässigkeit der in dieser Norm beschriebenen Leitungen ist sichergestellt, wenn diese nach EN 50565-1 und Anhang B dieser Norm installiert und betrieben werden.
Câbles électriques - Câbles de charge pour véhicules électriques
La présente norme spécifie la conception, les dimensions et les exigences d’essai pour les câbles sans halogène avec isolation et gaine extrudées, ayant une tension assignée jusqu’à 450/750 V inclus pour des applications souples dans des conditions sévères, assurant l’alimentation entre le point de fourniture de l'énergie électrique ou la borne de charge et le véhicule électrique (VE). Le câble de charge pour VE est destiné à assurer l’alimentation électrique d'un véhicule électrique, et si nécessaire, la communication avec celui-ci (pour plus de détails, voir l’EN 61851 et la série EN 62196). Les câbles de charge sont applicables pour les modes de charge 1-3 de l’EN 61851-1. Les câbles décrits dans la présente norme ayant une tension assignée de 300/500 V sont uniquement autorisés pour le mode de charge 1 de l’EN 61851-1. La température maximale de fonctionnement du conducteur pour les câbles de cette norme est 90 °C. Les câbles peuvent être a) partie intégrante du véhicule (cas A de l'EN 61851 1); ou b) un faisceau de câbles non fixé à demeure avec un connecteur de véhicule et le raccordement d’alimentation à courant alternatif à un socle de prise de courant (cas B de l'EN 61851 1); ou c) reliés en permanence à un point de charge fixe (case C of EN 61851 1) La présente norme décrit des câbles dont la sécurité et la fiabilité sont assurées lorsqu’ils sont installés et utilisés conformément au guide d’utilisation de l’EN 50565-1 et de l’Annexe B.
Električni kabli - Kabli za napajanje električnih vozil
Ta standard določa zasnovo, mere in preskusne zahteve za kable brez halogenov z ekstrudirano izolacijo in plaščem z nazivno napetostjo največ 450/750 V za prilagodljive načine uporabe v zahtevnih pogojih za električno napajanje med točko napajanja ali polnilno postajo in električnim vozilom (EV).
Napajalni kabel električnega vozila je namenjen za napajanje in komunikacijo (za podrobnosti glej standard EN 61851-1 in skupino standardov EN 62196) z električnim vozilom, če je ta potrebna. Napajalni kabli se uporabljajo za napajalne načine 1–3 standarda EN 61851-1. Kabli iz tega standarda z nazivno napetostjo 300/500 V so dovoljeni samo za napajalni način 1 v standardu EN 61851-1.
Najvišja delovna temperatura kabelskega vodnika v tem standardu je 90 °C.
Kabli so lahko:
a) sestavni del vozila (primer A v standardu EN 61851-1); ali
b) snemljivi kabelski sklop s konektorjem vozila in priključek za izmenični tok z izhodno vtičnico (primer B v standardu EN 61851-1); ali
c) trajno nameščeni na fiksno napajalno točko (primer C v standardu EN 61851-1).
Ta standard opisuje kable, katerih varnost in zanesljivost je zagotovljena, ko so napeljani in/ali uporabljeni v skladu z vodnikom za uporabo, s standardom EN 50565-1 in dodatkom B.
