Overview
Medium and Heavy Duty Vehicle Conductive Charging Task Force working on J3068 Electric Vehicle Power Transfer System Using a Three-Phase Capable Coupler ( covers the general physical, electrical, functional, testing, and performance requirements for conductive power transfer to an Electric Vehicle using a Coupler capable of, but not limited to, transferring three-phase AC power. It defines a conductive power transfer method including the digital communication system. It also covers the functional and dimensional requirements for the Electric Vehicle Inlet, Supply Equipment Connector, and mating housings and contacts. Moveable charging equipment such as a service truck with charging facilities are within scope. Charging while moving (or in-route-charging) is not in scope) and J3105 Electric Vehicle Power Transfer System Using Conductive Automated Connection Devices (covers the general physical, electrical, functional, testing, and performance requirements for conductive power transfer, primarily for vehicles using a conductive ACD connection capable of transferring DC power. It defines conductive power transfer methods, including the infrastructure electrical contact interface, the vehicle connection interface, the electrical characteristics of the DC supply, and the communication system. It also covers the functional and dimensional requirements for the vehicle connection interface and supply equipment interface. There are also sub-documents which are identified by a SAE J3105-1, SAE J3105-2, and SAE J3105-3. These will be specific requirements for a specific interface defined in the sub-document)
