Certification as a standard for electric vehicle charging cable

Wire and cable industry is an industrial basic industry, occupying an extremely important position in China's national economy. With the adjustment of China's energy structure, the wire and cable industry will usher in the spring of development. On the one hand, the next few years will be a critical period for the development of China's smart grid industry. It is expected that by 2020, China will become the world's largest smart grid market. To achieve this goal, the provincial and municipal governments are investing heavily in power distribution and power facilities construction, the speed will be rapidly increased, in its promotion, the cable industry will flourish. On the other hand, driven by the national 13th Five-Year Plan for energy development, the electric vehicle industry will show explosive growth, which will greatly boost the rapid development of the transmission and distribution industry. In addition, the government further accelerates the construction of national railroads, light railways, subways and other collective transportation system projects, the overall demand of China's cable industry will continue to be positive.

China is the best environment for the development of electric vehicles in the world. Before companies go global, they must create products that meet international standards. Obtaining international certification is the most direct proof of a product's presence in China's electric vehicle market.

According to reliable sources, TUV Rheinland has a global reputation for providing reliable inspection, testing and certification services for more than 140 years. In the field of wire and cable, TUV Rheinland has more than 20 years of experience and is familiar with the latest international certification standards for all types of traditional and special cable products. 2011, TUV Rheinland took the lead in promulgating the standard for electric vehicle charging cables, which was recognized and favored by the industry.

At present, the applicable standards for charging cables are mainly IEC 62893-1/-2/-3:2017 drafted by the International Electrotechnical Commission, as well as the corresponding regional standards of different countries such as China, the EU, the US, Canada, and Japan. Enterprises should carry out relevant testing and certification in a targeted manner according to their target markets. Testing and certification requirements for EU electric vehicle charging cables EN 50620:2017. The standard is mainly applicable to halogen-free cables that provide power and communication for electric vehicles. There are a series of strict requirements on insulation materials, rated voltage, printing, cable structure, inspection and testing of finished cables, etc.
