Primary 13 Conductor Electrical Connector (Plug and Receptacle) between Towing Vehicle and Trailer.

2022-07-07
WIP
J3285
This SAE document provides the minimum requirements for a 13-conductor cable plug and receptacle to support the 13-conductor jumper cable between the towing vehicle and trailer. The document also includes the test procedures, design and performance requirements for the plug and receptacle. This document shall be used in conjunction with SAE J3284. The specified 13-conductor plug and receptacle would be totally interchangeable with the current SAE J560 primary plug and receptacle, plus provide an additional 6 conductors for use in trailers incorporating advanced electronics or multivoltage applications. New tractors designed with the 13 conductor receptacle and 13 conductor tractor to trailer cable and plug assembly, would be compatible with old trailers (7 conductor receptacle) and new trailers (13 conductor receptacle).

Primary Single Phase Nominal 120 VAC Wiring Distribution Assembly Design—Truck and Bus

2022-06-22
CURRENT
J2698_202206
This SAE Recommended Practice covers the design and application of primary on-board wiring distribution system harnessing for surface vehicles. This document is intended for single phase nominal 120 VAC circuits that provide power to truck sleeper cab hotel loads so that they may operate with the main propulsion engine turned off. The power supply comes from alternative sources such as land-based grid power, DC-AC inverters and auxiliary power generators. The circuits may also provide power to improve vehicle performance through charging batteries or operating cold-weather starting aids.

Auxiliary Two-Conductor Electrical Power Connector for Truck-Trailer High-Power Jumper Cable

2023-09-20
WIP
J3082
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.

HISTORICAL
J3082_201511
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 at more than 30A (Ampere) up to and including 150A 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 5th 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 Standard covers two variants of high power two conductor connections: a heavy duty version with horizontally aligned pins, typically for lift-gate battery charging and a medium duty version with vertically aligned pins: typically for loads such as power tarpaulins.

Electric Power Take-Off Interface Requirements for Commercial Vehicles

2021-05-04
WIP
J3253
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.
