Foreword

ISO (the International Organization for Standardization) is a worldwide federation of national standards bodies (ISO member bodies). The work of preparing International Standards is normally carried out through ISO technical committees. Each member body interested in a subject for which a technical committee has been established has the right to be represented on that committee. International organizations, governmental and non-governmental, in liaison with ISO, also take part in the work. ISO collaborates closely with the International Electrotechnical Commission (IEC) on all matters of electrotechnical standardization.

The procedures used to develop this document and those intended for its further maintenance are described in the ISO/IEC Directives, Part 1. In particular, the different approval criteria needed for the different types of ISO documents should be noted. This document was drafted in accordance with the editorial rules of the ISO/IEC Directives, Part 2 (see www.iso.org/directives).

Attention is drawn to the possibility that some of the elements of this document may be the subject of patent rights. ISO shall not be held responsible for identifying any or all such patent rights. Details of any patent rights identified during the development of the document will be in the Introduction and/or on the ISO list of patent declarations received (see www.iso.org/patents).

This document was prepared by Technical Committee ISO/TC 22, Road vehicles, Subcommittee SC 38, Motorcycles and mopeds.

This first edition of ISO 13063-2, together with ISO 13063-1 and ISO 13063-3, cancels and replaces ISO 13063: 2012, which has been technically revised.

The main changes are as follows:

— splitting the document into three documents which consist of the following parts, under the general title Electrically propelled mopeds and motorcycles — Safety specifications:
- — Part 1: On-board rechargeable energy storage system (RESS);
- — Part 2: Vehicle operational safety;
- — Part 3: Electrical safety;
— improvement of the operational safety requirements for the driving-enabled mode;
— addition of the requirement for vehicles with a permanently connected recharge cable according to case A of IEC 61851‑1;
— alignment with ISO 6469‑2.

A list of all parts in the ISO 13063 series can be found on the ISO website.

Any feedback or questions on this document should be directed to the user’s national standards body. A complete listing of these bodies can be found at www.iso.org/members.html
