GB/T 20234.1 focuses on the general requirements and performance specifications of conductive charging systems for electric vehicles.
This standard provides a framework for designing, manufacturing, and testing EV charging connectors to ensure their reliability and safety during the charging process.
The specification covers various aspects, including connector design, electrical performance, environmental conditions, mechanical durability, and safety features. It outlines requirements for connector dimensions, materials, electrical ratings (such as voltage and current capacity), and protective measures against hazards like electric shock, overheating, and mechanical stress.
Manufacturers must adhere to the guidelines set in GB/T 20234.1 to produce charging connectors that are compatible with different EV models and charging stations, promoting interoperability and a seamless charging experience for users. The standard's comprehensive nature also aids in establishing a uniform quality benchmark across the EV charging industry.
GB/T 20234.2 Specification:
GB/T 20234.2 focuses on the electromagnetic compatibility (EMC) requirements for EV charging connectors.
This standard ensures that the charging connectors do not generate or suffer from electromagnetic interference that could impact the performance of other electronic systems or devices in their vicinity.
The specification defines limits and test methods for conducted and radiated emissions, as well as immunity to electromagnetic disturbances. These limits ensure that charging connectors do not disrupt the operation of other electronic equipment, such as radio communication devices, medical equipment, and navigation systems.
By complying with GB/T 20234.2, manufacturers help maintain a harmonious electromagnetic environment in areas where EV charging stations are installed. This minimizes the potential for interference-related issues and ensures that EV charging infrastructure coexists peacefully with other technologies.
