1 Scope
This document applies to battery swap systems for removable RESS of electric road vehicle when connected to the supply network, with a rated supply
voltage up to 480 V AC or up to 400 V DC, for battery systems with a rated voltage
up to 120 V DC.
NOTE 1 In the following countries, the acceptable nominal supply voltage is up to 600 V AC:
CA, US.
This document applies to battery swap systems for removable RESS/EV where the removable RESS/EV is stored for the purpose of transfer power between the battery swap station and removable RESS/EV.
Requirements for bidirectional energy transfer DC to AC are under consideration and
are not Part of this document.
This document applies to:
-
–
battery swap systems supplied from on-site storage systems (for example buffer batteries etc);
-
– manual, mechanically assisted and automatic systems;
-
–
battery swap systems intended to supply removable battery systems having communication allowing to identify the battery system characteristics;
-
–
battery swap systems intended to be installed at an altitude of up to 2 000 m.
The aspects covered in this document include:
-
– requirements for power transfer between the battery systems;
-
– additional requirements for communication;
-
– the connection to supply network.
Additional requirements may apply to special locations.
This document does not apply to:
-
– safety requirements for mechanical equipment covered by ISO 10218 (all parts);
-
– locking compartments systems providing AC socket-outlets for the use of manufacturer
specific voltage converter units and manufacturer specific battery systems;
-
– safety aspects related to maintenance;
-
– electrical devices and components which are covered by their specific product standards;
-
– trolley buses, rail vehicles;
-
– any on-board equipment which is covered by ISO;
-
– EMC requirements for on-board equipment while connected to the supply, which are covered
by IEC 61851‑21‑1.
Requirements for battery swap systems using protective measures as covered by 410 of IEC 60364‑4‑41:2005 other than double or reinforced insulation are under consideration.
