This SAE standard establishes the minimum construction and performance requirements for a combination cable consisting of 9 conductors and 2 twisted pairs for use on trucks, trailers, and dollies. The cable includes power, ground and 2 jacketed/unshielded twisted paired signal circuits. This standard will be used in conjunction with the SAEJ XXXX “13 Conductor Electrical Connector (Plug and Receptacle) between Towing Vehicle and Trailer”. The standard will also include the test procedures, design and performance requirements for the cable.

This SAE standard establishes the minimum construction and performance requirements for a 15 Pole Connector Between Towing Vehicles and Trailers, for trucks, trailers, and dollies in conjunction with SAE J2742. The connector accommodates both power and ISO 11992-1 signal circuits along with dual ground wires to accommodate grounding requirements within the constraints of the SAE J2691 terminal capacity.

This SAE Recommended Practice covers the design and application of a 120 VAC single phase engine based auxiliary power unit or GENSET. This document is intended to provide design direction for the single phase nominal 120 VAC as it interfaces within the truck architecture providing power to truck sleeper cab hotel loads so that they may operate with the main propulsion engine turned off.

This SAE Standard provides the minimum requirements for high-power, two-conductor jumper cable plug and receptacle for truck-trailer jumper cable systems. It includes the test procedures, design, and performance requirements. This document covers receptacles rated 12 VDC nominal and at more than 30 A (amperes) up to and including 150 A, and is intended for a single circuit with one power conductor and one common return conductor. Single-conductor high-current connectors are not recommended for future designs because of inadequate ground return through fifth wheel/king pin. Cable size selection is to be made by the vehicle OEM for specific applications and the specific voltage drop requirements of those applications.

This SAE Recommended Practice establishes the recommended locations for the air brake and electrical connections for the back of a truck-tractor and the front of a truck-trailer.

This SAE Standard defines the test conditions, procedures, and performance requirements for circuit breakers in ratings up to and including 50 A. The document includes externally or internally mounted automatic reset, modified reset, and manually reset types of circuit breakers for 12 V and 24 V DC operation. Some circuit breakers may have dual voltage ratings (AC and DC), however, this document evaluates DC performance only.

This Draft Technical Report covers the minimum performance and endurance requirements for coiled electrical cables to connect a tractor and trailer and/or trailer to trailer. The purpose of this Draft Technical Report is to give the technical community the opportunity to review, comment on, and use the Draft Technical Report prior to its final approval by SAE. This document shall have a life span of no more than three years from approval which may not be renewed. This Draft Technical Report represents the current thinking of the sponsoring Technical Committee. The use of this report is entirely voluntary, and its applicability and suitability for any particular use, including any patent infringements arising therefrom, is the sole responsibility of the user. Comments on this Draft are welcome and should be submitted in writing to Secretary, Technical Standards Board, SAE Headquarters, 400 Commonwealth Drive, Warrendale, PA 15096-0001.

This SAE Recommended Practice applies to all commercial trailers except drop frame and car haul types.

This SAE Standard establishes the minimum circuit identification and requirements for Multi-Voltage Power Distribution Systems (MVPDS) for use on trucks and buses. A Multi-Voltage Power Distribution System is one that distributes two or three voltages, up to 60 VDC, to power the controls, instruments, and devices.

This SAE Standard defines the test conditions, procedures, and performance requirements for circuit breakers in ratings up to and including 200 A. The document includes automatic reset, modified reset, and manually reset types of circuit breakers for 12 VDC, 24 VDC, and 48 VDC electrical systems. Some circuit breakers may have dual voltage ratings (AC and DC); however, this document evaluates DC performance only.

This SAE Standard establishes the minimum performance and endurance requirements for coiled electrical cables used for hookup between trucks, trailers and dollies. The component standards SAE J2394 (replaced SAE J1067) for cable and SAE J560 for connectors must be consulted to determine the complete performance and endurance requirements of the system. Related TMC Recommended Practices may be consulted for information associated with selection, installation and inspection of these coiled electrical cables. This document is intended to set out requirements for the majority of conditions rather than for specialized applications or environments.

This SAE standard establishes the minimum construction and performance requirements for a combination cable consisting of 11 conductors and 4 twisted pairs for use on trucks, trailers, and dollies in conjunction with SAEJ2691. (15 pole connectors.) The cable includes both power and unjacketed SAE J1939-15 paired signal circuits along with dual ground wires to accommodate grounding requirements within the constraints of the SAE J2691 terminal capacity.

This SAE Recommended Practice establishes the recommended locations for the air brake and electrical connections for towing multiple trailers. It applies to all commercial trailers except drop frame and car haul types.

This SAE Recommended Practice document covers the general guidelines for conductive power transfer of high voltage Direct Current (DC) power between OEM commercial truck chassis electrical systems and electrically powered body accessory equipment. The OEM chassis can have an EV drive train or be a hybrid chassis with or without a connection for traditional mechanical PTO. The chassis can include use of range extension systems. Voltage levels are defined as greater than 60VDC and include typical EV chassis voltage ranges up to and including 1200VDC . It also covers the functional requirements for the connection systems, body builder communication modes including diagnostics, suggested operational modes, system interlocks and isolation management. The scope of the ePTO physical electrical connection will be limited to a recommendation of the interface concept, space claim and service features and will leave connector features and design open for future definition.
