Electric vehicle battery swap system - Part 2: Safety requirements

IEC 62840-2:2016 provides the safety requirements for a battery swap system, for the purposes of swapping swappable battery system (SBS) of electric vehicles. The battery swap system is intended to be connected to the supply network. The power supply is up to 1 000 V AC or up to 1 500 V d.c, in accordance with IEC 60038. This standard also applies to battery swap systems supplied from on-site storage systems (e.g. buffer batteries).
This publication is to be read in conjunction with IEC 62840-1:2016.

Système d'échange de batterie pour véhicule électrique - Partie 2: Exigences de sécurité

L'IEC 62840-2:2016 spécifie les exigences de sécurité relatives à un système d'échange de batterie, pour remplacer le système de batterie échangeable (SBS) des véhicules électriques. Le système d'échange de batterie est destiné à être connecté au réseau électrique. L'alimentation atteint 1 000 V en courant alternatif ou 1 500 V en courant continu, conformément à l'IEC 60038. La présente norme s'applique également aux systèmes d'échange de batterie alimentés par des systèmes de stockage sur site (par exemple, des batteries tampons).

Sistem menjave baterij električnih vozil - 2. del: Varnostne zahteve

Ta del standarda IEC 62840 podaja varnostne zahteve za sistem menjave baterij za namene menjave zamenljivih baterijskih sistemov (SBS) pri električnih vozilih. Sistem menjave baterij je predviden za priključitev na napajalno omrežje. Zmogljivost električnega napajalnika je največ 1000 V pri izmeničnem toku ali največ 1500 V pri enosmernem toku v skladu s standardom IEC 60038.
Ta standard se uporablja tudi za sisteme menjave baterij, dobavljene iz sistemov za shranjevanje na mestu uporabe (npr. nadomestne baterije).
Vidiki, zajeti v tem standardu:
• varnostne zahteve sistema menjave baterij in/ali njegovih sistemov;
• varnostne zahteve za komunikacijo;
• elektromagnetna združljivost (EMC);
• oznake in navodila;
• zaščita pred električnim udarom in drugimi nevarnostmi.
Ta standard se uporablja za sisteme menjave baterij za električna vozila, opremljena z vsaj enim sistemom SBS.
OPOMBA: Obravnavani so sistemi menjave baterij za lahka električna vozila v skladu s skupino standardov IEC 61851-3.
Ta standard se ne uporablja za:
• vidike v povezavi z vzdrževanjem in servisiranjem postaje za menjavo baterij (BSS);
• trolejbuse, železniška vozila in vozila, ki so namenjena predvsem za uporabo zunaj cestišč;
• vzdrževanje in servisiranje električnih vozil.
