Cable Marking for Circuit Identification in Multi-Voltage Power Distribution Systems
J3176_202101
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.
Rationale:
This document was approved for creation by the SAE Truck and Bus Electrical Systems Committee to address the need for standardized use of cable color/marking to identify circuits in Multi-Voltage Power Distribution Systems.
