IEC Releases IEC 62752:2016 Standard for Electric Vehicle Charging

EV chargingThe International Electrotechnical Commission (IEC) has published the first edition of IEC 62752:2016. This standard deals with “in-cable control and protection device for mode 2 charging of electric road vehicles (IC-CPD).” The first edition can now be purchased on the IEC webstore.

Description*

IEC 62752:2016 applies to in-cable control and protection devices (IC-CPDs) for mode 2 charging of electric road vehicles, hereafter referred to as IC-CPD including control and safety functions. This standard applies to portable devices performing simultaneously the functions of detection of the residual current, of comparison of the value of this current with the residual operating value and of opening of the protected circuit when the residual current exceeds this value.

Mastering High Voltage: The Importance of Accurate Test Equipment

This whitepaper underscores that precise calibration of high-voltage test gear — especially when measuring 1 kV–150 kV systems — is essential for safety, reliability, and regulatory compliance. It details measurement techniques (voltage dividers, step-down transformers, etc.), the impact of environmental and connection factors on accuracy, and why traceable calibration (e.g. to NIST / A2LA) is a must to ensure consistent, reliable results.
