Plugs, socket-outlets, vehicle connectors and vehicle inlets - Conductive charging of electric vehicles - Part 1: General requirements (IEC 62196-1:2014, modified)

This part of IEC 62196 is applicable to plugs, socket-outlets, vehicle connectors, vehicle inlets
and cable assemblies for electric vehicles, herein referred to as “accessories”, intended for
use in conductive charging systems which incorporate control means, with a rated operating
voltage not exceeding
– 690 V a.c. 50 Hz to 60 Hz, at a rated current not exceeding 250 A,
– 1 500 V d.c. at a rated current not exceeding 400 A.
These accessories are intended to be installed by instructed persons (IEC 60050-195:1998,
IEC 60050-195/AMD1:2001, 195-04-02) or skilled persons (IEC 60050-195:1998, IEC 60050-
195/AMD1:2001, 195-04-01) only.
These accessories and cable assemblies are intended to be used for circuits specified in
IEC 61851-1 which operate at different voltages and frequencies and which may include
extra-low voltage and communication signals.
These accessories and cable assemblies are to be used at an ambient temperature between
–30 °C and +50 °C.
NOTE 1 In some countries, other requirements may apply.
NOTE 2 the following countries, –35 °C applies: SE.
These accessories are intended to be connected only to cables with copper or copper-alloy
conductors.
The accessories covered by this part of IEC 62196 are for use in certain modes of charging
electric vehicles. These modes are defined in IEC 61851-1. These definitions and a
description of the types of connection (cases A, B and C), are described in IEC 61851-1:2010,
6.2 and 6.3.1.
NOTE 3 In the following countries, mode 1 will not be allowed: UK, US, CA, SG.
This part of IEC 62196 does not apply to those standardised accessories used in charging
systems where the use of such accessories constructed to the requirements of other
standards is permitted (e.g. in mode 1 and mode 2). Such standardized accessories may be
used for those situations (mode and case) identified in IEC 61851-1.
This part of IEC 62196 may be used as a guide for accessories with a lesser number of
contacts and lower ratings for use with light duty vehicles.

Vtiči, vtičnice, konektorji in uvodnice na vozilih - Kabelsko napajanje električnih vozil - 1. del: Splošne zahteve (IEC 62196-1:2014, spremenjen)

Ta del standarda IEC 62196 se uporablja za vtiče, vtičnice, konektorje, uvodnice in kabelske sestave na električnih vozilih (v nadaljnjem besedilu: »priključki«), ki so namenjena za sisteme kabelskega napajanja, ki vključujejo krmilno sredstvo z nazivno obratovalno napetostjo, ki ne presega napetosti
– 690 V za izmenični tok, 50–60 Hz, pri nazivnem toku, ki ne presega 250 A,
– 1500 V za enosmerni tok pri nazivnem toku, ki ne presega 400 A.
Te priključke lahko namestijo le poučene osebe (IEC 60050-195:1998, IEC 60050-195/AMD1:2001, 195-04-02) ali ustrezno usposobljene osebe (IEC 60050-195:1998, IEC 60050- 195/AMD1:2001, 195-04-01).
Ti priključki in kabelski sestavi so namenjeni za uporabo pri tokokrogih, navedenih v standardu IEC 61851-1, ki delujejo pri različnih napetostih in frekvencah ter lahko vključujejo malo napetost in komunikacijske signale.
Ti priključki in kabelski sestavi so namenjeni za uporabo pri temperaturi okolja, in sicer med
-30 °C in +50 °C.
OPOMBA 1 V nekaterih državah lahko obstajajo drugačne zahteve.
OPOMBA 2 V naslednji državi velja –35 °C: SE.
Ti priključki se lahko priključijo samo na kable z vodniki iz bakra ali bakrove zlitine.
Priključki, ki jih zajema ta del standarda IEC 62196, se uporabljajo pri nekaterih načinih polnjenja električnih vozil. Ti načini so določeni v standardu IEC 61851-1. Te definicije in ti opisi vrst povezav (primeri A, B in C) so opisani v standardu IEC 61851-1:2010, 6.2 in 6.3.1.
OPOMBA 3 Način 1 ne bo dovoljen v naslednjih državah: ZK, ZDA, CA, SG.
Ta del standarda IEC 62196 ne velja za tiste standardizirane priključke, ki se uporabljajo v polnilnih sistemih, pri katerih je dovoljena uporaba teh priključkov, izdelanih glede na zahteve drugih standardov (npr. v načinu 1 in 2). Taki standardizirani priključki se lahko uporabljajo v situacijah (način in primer), določenih v standardu IEC 61851-1.
Ta del standarda IEC 62196 se lahko uporabi kot vodilo za priključke z manjšim številom kontaktov in nižjimi ocenami za uporabo z lahkimi tovornimi vozili.

FOREWORD

1) The International Electrotechnical Commission (IEC) is a worldwide organization for standardization comprising

all national electrotechnical committees (IEC National Committees). The object of IEC is to promote

international co-operation on all questions concerning standardization in the electrical and electronic fields. To

this end and in addition to other activities, IEC publishes International Standards, Technical Specifications,

Technical Reports, Publicly Available Specifications (PAS) and Guides (hereafter referred to as “IEC

Publication(s)”). Their preparation is entrusted to technical committees; any IEC National Committee interested

in the subject dealt with may participate in this preparatory work. International, governmental and non-

governmental organizations liaising with the IEC also participate in this preparation. IEC collaborates closely

with the International Organization for Standardization (ISO) in accordance with conditions determined by

agreement between the two organizations.
