1 Scope
This document defines the requirements and operation of the on-board vehicle equipment that enables magnetic field wireless power transfer (MF-WPT) for traction battery charging of electric vehicles. It is intended to be used for passenger cars and light duty vehicles.
This document addresses the following aspects for an EV device:
-
— transferred power;
-
— ground clearance;
-
— interoperability requirements among differently classified EV devices and associated off-vehicle systems;
-
— performance requirements under various conditions, including among different manufacturers and classifications;
-
— safety requirements;
-
— test procedures.
EV devices according to this document are intended to operate with off-board systems currently under development in the IEC 61980 series.
NOTE 1 This edition covers stationary applications.
NOTE 2 Bidirectional power transfer is not considered in this edition.
