IEC EN 61851-23 Electric Vehicle Conductor Charging System - DC Electric Vehicle Charging Station

IEC EN 61851-23 gives requirements for DC electric vehicle (EV) charging stations, also referred to herein as "DC chargers", for conductive connection to the vehicle with an ac or dc input voltage of up to 1000 V ac.

IEC EN 61851-23 Electric Vehicle Conductor Charging System - DC Electric Vehicle Charging Station

Provides general requirements for control communication between DC EV charging station and EV. The digital communication requirements between the DC EV charging station and the electric vehicle for the control of dc charging are defined in IEC 61851-24.

Due to further technical developments in the field of charging electric vehicles, the requirements in IEC 61851-23 may not cover all possible combinations to meet the safety objective of "protection against electric shock" in the event of a single fault by limiting the capacitance energy.

Since charging connects the charging infrastructure with the electric vehicle, the requirements set out in ISO 17409 also apply to the electrical safety of the charging process. An approach to limiting the capacitance energy will not be sufficient for the safety objective of "shock protection" in a single fault condition in all relevant cases.

Users of the Standards are always strongly encouraged to carry out an additional risk assessment. Specifically in this case, users of the standard must choose the appropriate tools to fulfill the safety requirements in the charging station and electric vehicle system.
