Use Cases for Communication Between Plug-in Vehicles and Off-Board DC Charger

2023-08-31
CURRENT
J2836/2_202308
This SAE Information Report, SAE J2836-2, establishes use cases and general information for communication between plug-in electric vehicles (PEVs) and the DC off-board charger. Where relevant, this document notes, but does not formally specify, interactions between the vehicle and vehicle operator. This applies to the off-board DC charger for conductive charging, which supplies DC current to the vehicle battery of the electric vehicle through a SAE J1772 hybrid coupler or SAE J1772 AC Level 2-type coupler on DC power lines, using the AC power lines or the pilot line for power line communication (PLC), or dedicated communication lines that are further described in SAE J2847-2. The specification supports DC energy transfer via forward power flow (FPF) from grid-to-vehicle. The relationship of this document to the others that address PEV communications is further explained in Section 5.

PERFORMANCE SPECIFICATION FOR AUTOMOTIVE RF CONNECTOR SYSTEMS

2023-07-10
CURRENT
USCAR17-6
This document contains procedures for testing performance of SMB-style electrical terminals, connectors and components for coaxial cable connection systems intended for road vehicle applications. These are often called FAKRA II designs. This specification does not apply to the Non RF portion of a Hybrid RF connection system. The intent of this specification is to qualify sealed and unsealed RF connectors that operate at frequencies from DC to 6 GHz. The characteristic impedance of the SMB/FAKRA connection system is 50 ohms however this specification does not exclude the use of these RF connectors on non-50 ohm cables or systems. This specification does not apply to single conductor wire or twisted pair connection systems. This specification (along with SAE/USCAR 18) is designed to provide the mechanical and electrical data required to insure that assemblies from various manufacturers will perform reliably in actual conditions.

Standard Reference Elastomers (SREs) for Characterizing the Effect of Liquids on Vulcanized Rubbers

2023-05-10
CURRENT
J2643_202305
This SAE Standard specifies requirements for vulcanized rubbers in sheet form for use as standards in characterizing the effect of test liquids and service fluids. The appendices contain the standard reference elastomer formulas. The property changes of the SRE in contact with the indicated fluid under specified test conditions are the responsibility of the user. See 7.3 and Table 1. This standard is not designed to provide formulations of elastomeric product compositions for actual service.

PERFORMANCE SPECIFICATION FOR AUTOMOTIVE WIRE HARNESS RETAINER CLIPS

2023-03-23
CURRENT
USCAR44-2
This specification describes a method and acceptance criteria for testing automotive wire harness retainer clips. Retainer clips are plastic parts that hold a wire harness or electrical connector in a specific position. Typical plastic retainers work by having a set of “branches” that can be inserted into a hole sized to be easy to install but provide acceptable retention. This specification tests retainer clips for mechanical retention when exposed to the mechanical and environmental stresses typically found in automotive applications over a 15-year service life. This specification has several test options to allow the test to match to the expected service conditions. The variability of applications typically arises from different ambient temperatures near the clip, different proximity to automotive fluids, different exposure to standing water or water spray, and different thicknesses of the holes that the clip is inserted into.

ENGINE OIL PUMP PERFORMANCE AND DURABILITY TEST PROCEDURES

2023-03-23
CURRENT
USCAR46
SAE/USCAR-46 defines test methods and outputs for engine oil pump bench testing. Performance and durability testing are the primary focus of this standard. This is written to specifically address testing of electronically controlled variable displacement pumps but can be adapted to mechanically controlled pumps and other pump technologies as needed. This standard outlines critical inputs and outputs in order to perform the testing and report results, but does not specifically set the acceptance standards or pass/fail criteria. Acceptance criteria must be set by the customer.

Vehicle Power and Rated System Power Test for Electrified Powertrains

2023-01-17
CURRENT
J2908_202301
This SAE Information Report provides test methods and determination options for evaluating the maximum wheel power and rated system power of vehicles with electrified vehicle powertrains. The scope of this document encompasses passenger car and light- and medium-duty (GVW <10000 pounds) hybrid-electric vehicles (HEVs), plug-in hybrid electric vehicles (PHEVs), battery electric vehicles (BEVs), and fuel-cell electric vehicles (FCEVs). These testing methods can also be applied to conventional ICE vehicles, especially when measuring and comparing wheel power among a range of vehicle types. This document version includes a definition and determination methodology for a rated system power that is comparable to traditional internal combustion engine power ratings (e.g., SAE J1349 and UN ECE R85). The general public is most accustomed to “engine power” and/or “motor power” as the rating metric for conventional and electrified vehicles, respectively.
