Electric vehicle conductive charging system - Part 23: DC electric vehicle supply equipment
IEC 61851-23:2023 applies to the EV supply equipment to provide energy transfer between the supply network and electric vehicles (EVs), with a rated maximum voltage at side A of up to 1 000 V AC or up to 1 500 V DC and a rated maximum voltage at side B up to 1 500 V DC.
This document specifies the EV supply equipment of system A, system B and system C as defined in Annex AA, Annex BB and Annex CC. Other systems are under consideration.
This document provides the requirements for bidirectional power transfer (BPT) EV supply equipment for system A, with a rated maximum voltage at side A up to 1 000 V AC or 1 500 V DC. The requirements for reverse power transfer (RPT) and BPT for system B and system C are under consideration and are not specified in this document.
This second edition cancels and replaces the first edition published in 2014. This edition constitutes a technical revision. This edition includes the following significant technical changes with respect to the previous edition:
a) the structure has been rearranged according to IEC 61851-1:2017;
b) electrical safety requirements in Clause 8 and Clause 12 have been revised based on the requirements in IEC 62477-1 and inspired by the hazard based safety approach of IEC 62368-1;
c) test methods for checking conformity to the stated requirements have been mostly added; general provisions for compliance tests have been specified in Clause 102;
d) specific requirements and/or information for the following functions have been added: energy transfer with thermal management system (101.2), bi-directional power transfer control (Annex DD), multi- side B separated EV supply equipment (Annex FF), and communication and energy transfer process (Annex GG);
e) Annex AA (system A), Annex BB (system B) and Annex CC (system C) have been updated including additions in conjunction with b) and c). This document has been limited to be applicable to system A, system B and system C;
f) the former Annex DD and Annex EE have been deleted. A new Annex EE, with the requirements for the artificial test load, has been added.
g) a new informative annex for the touch current and the touch impulse current (Annex HH) has been added

Cette deuxième édition annule et remplace la première édition parue en 2014. Cette édition constitue une révision technique.
Cette édition inclut les modifications techniques majeures suivantes par rapport à l'édition précédente:
a) la structure du présent document a été réorganisée conformément à l'IEC 61851-1:2017;
b) les exigences de sécurité électrique de l'Article 8 et de l'Article 12 ont été révisées en se fondant sur les exigences de l'IEC 62477-1 et en s'inspirant des principes de la sécurité fondée sur le danger de l'IEC 62368-1;
c) des méthodes d'essai de vérification de la conformité aux exigences établies ont été ajoutées. Des dispositions générales relatives aux essais de conformité ont été spécifiées à l'Article 102;
d) des exigences et/ou informations spécifiques relatives aux fonctions suivantes ont été ajoutées: transfert d'énergie avec système de gestion thermique (101.2), contrôle de transfert de puissance bidirectionnel (Annexe DD), système d’alimentation pour VE avec séparation électrique à plusieurs côtés B (Annexe FF) et processus de communication et de transfert d'énergie (Annexe GG);
e) l’Annexe AA (système A), l’Annexe BB (système B) et l’Annexe CC (système C) ont été mises à jour avec intégration des ajouts conjointement à b) et c). Le présent document a été limité au système A, au système B et au système C;
f) les anciennes Annexe DD et Annexe EE ont été supprimées. Une nouvelle Annexe EE, qui comprend les exigences relatives à la charge d’essai artificielle, a été ajoutée;
g) une nouvelle annexe informative relative au courant de contact et au courant de choc de contact (Annexe HH) a été ajoutée.
La présente version bilingue (2024-05) correspond à la version anglaise monolingue publiée en 2023-12.
La version française de cette norme n'a pas été soumise au vote.
