23、 PERMISSION FROM UL PREFACE This is the harmonized ANCE, CSA Group, and UL standard for Personnel Protection Systems for Electric Vehicle (EV) Supply Circuits: General Requirements. It is the Second edition of NMX-J-668-1-ANCE, the First edition of CAN/CSA-C22.2 No. 281.1, and the Second edition of

24、UL 22311. This harmonized standard has been jointly revised on August 26, 2016. For this purpose, CSA Group and UL are issuing revision pages dated August 26, 2016, and ANCE is issuing a new edition dated August 26, 2016. This harmonized standard was prepared by the Association of Standardization an

25、d Certication (ANCE), CSA Group, and Underwriters Laboratories Inc. (UL). The efforts and support of the Technical Harmonization Working Group for Personnel Protection Systems for Electric Vehicle (EV) Supply Circuits are gratefully acknowledged. This standard is considered suitable for use for conf

26、ormity assessment within the stated scope of the Standard. The present Mexican Standard was reviewed and approved by the Comit de Normalizacin de la Asociacin de Normalizacin y Certicacin, A.C., CONANCE. This standard was reviewed by the CSA Subcommittee on Electric Vehicle Personal Protection Syste

27、ms for Supply Circuits, under the jurisdiction of the CSA Technical Committee on Industrial Products and the CSA Strategic Steering Committee on Requirements for Electrical Safety, and has been formally approved by the CSA Technical Committee. This standard has been approved as a National Standard o

28、f Canada by the Standards Council of Canada (SCC). This standard has been approved by the American National Standards Institute (ANSI) as an American National Standard. Application of Standard Where reference is made to a specic number of specimens to be tested, the specied number is to be considere

29、d a minimum quantity. Note: Although the intended primary application of this standard is stated in its scope, it is important to note that it remains the responsibility of the users of the standard to judge its suitability for their particular purpose. Level of harmonization This standard uses the

30、IEC format but is not based on, nor is considered equivalent to, an IEC standard. This standard is published as an equivalent standard for ANCE, CSA Group, and UL. An equivalent standard is a standard that is substantially the same in technical content, except as follows: Technical national differen

31、ces are allowed for codes and governmental regulations as well as those recognized as being in accordance with NAFTA Article 905, for example, because of fundamental climatic, geographical, technological, or infrastructural factors, scientic justication, or the level of protection that the country c

32、onsiders appropriate. Presentation is word for word except for editorial changes.

33、ndard provides general requirements for personnel protection systems for electric vehicle supply circuits for use in accordance with the electrical installation codes of Canada, Mexico, and the United States. At present there is no IEC standard for these products for use in accordance with these cod

34、es. Therefore, this standard does not employ any IEC standard for base requirements. Interpretations The interpretation by the standards development organization of an identical or equivalent standard is based on the literal text to determine compliance with the standard in accordance with the proce

35、dural rules of the standards development organization. If more than one interpretation of the literal text has been identied, a revision is to be proposed as soon as possible to each of the standards development organizations to more accurately reect the intent.

37、or use in accordance with Annex A, Ref. No. 1, to reduce the risk of electric shock to the user from accessible parts, in grounded or isolated circuits for charging electric vehicles. These circuits are external to or on board the vehicle. 1.2 The devices and systems covered by these requirements ar

38、e compatible with the designs of charging systems and vehicles where use is intended and are rated accordingly. To assure compatibility, the charging system, the vehicle, or both, are in accordance with the features contained in 1.3 1.5. 1.3 The type of vehicle covered by these requirements, includi

39、ng all accessible conductive parts on the vehicle, has one or more of the following: a) Provision for the connection of an equipment grounding conductor during battery charging, unless the vehicle has a system of reinforced or double insulation or all of the circuitry on the vehicle is electrically

40、isolated from the supply circuit, b) Provision for the connection of ground-monitoring conductors, where required, c) Reinforced insulation, or is double-insulated from the supply circuit, or d) No direct connection between current-carrying conductors and the vehicle chassis. 1.4 These requirements

41、cover devices and systems where the grounding path impedance of the charging system to the vehicle is less than or equal to the impedance of the ungrounded conductor or conductors. 1.5 These requirements cover devices and systems where a continuous current less than 70 mA RMS is available from any a

42、ccessible part of the charging system. 1.6 Devices covered by these requirements are intended to interrupt the electric circuit to the load when: a) A fault current to ground exceeds some predetermined value that is less than that required to operate the overcurrent protective device of the supply c

43、ircuit, b) The grounding path becomes open-circuited or becomes an excessively high impedance, or c) A path to ground is detected on an isolated (ungrounded) system. 1.7 These devices and systems are intended to be applied on electrical systems or include derived systems that are: a) Either end-grou

44、nded or centrally grounded when the operating voltage is 150 Vrms or less, b) Centrally grounded when the operating voltage is greater than 150 Vrms, or c) Isolated (ungrounded).

45、PRODUCTION OR DISTRIBUTION WITHOUT PERMISSION FROM UL 1.8 Charging circuit-interrupting devices covered by these requirements are investigated for their ability to provide protection based on: a) The type of current (60 Hz AC, DC, a combination of AC and DC, or AC at frequencies greater than 60 Hz)

46、present in the circuit to be protected, and b) Voltage. 1.9 In Mexico and the US, these requirements do not cover ground-fault circuit-interrupters (GFCIs) intended for use as personnel protection in accordance with the national electrical codes on grounded 120 Vrms or 127 Vrms to ground, 60 Hz circ

47、uits. Such devices are covered under Annex A, Ref. No. 2. In Canada, these requirements do not cover ground-fault circuit-interrupters (GFCIs) in accordance with the national electrical code on grounded 120 Vrms or 127 Vrms to ground, 60 Hz circuits. Such devices are covered under Annex A, Ref. No.

48、2. 1.10 This Standard includes the Scope, Denitions, and Description of Requirements, including the required features of protection systems. The standards in Annex A, Ref. No. 3 contain the Performance and Construction requirements for protective devices that would become a part of a charging system
