Potential for Global Harmonization of EV Charging Gery J. Kissel Engineering Specialist, General Motors SAE J1772™ Task Force Leader November 17, 2010
PHEV / EV Global Volume Estimate Importance of harmonization increases with vehicle volume.
Charging Needs Each type of vehicle has unique charging needs: Plug in Hybrid Electric Vehicle (PHEV) Very limited electric range – small battery 5-10 kw hr Charge power 1-3 kw Extended Range Electric Vehicle (EREV) Increased electric range – medium battery 10-20 kw hr Charge power up to 6 kw Battery Electric Vehicle (BEV) All electric range – large battery >20kw hr Charge power > 6 kw

NA / Japan / Korea / Australia AC Charging Connector AC Connector: IEC 62196-2 EU AC Connector: SAE J1772™ NA / Japan / Korea / Australia AC Connector: China Type 1: Type 2: Type 3:
AC Charging Connector IEC 62196-2 Type 2 Derivatives: 3 Types of Type 2 IEC 62196-2 Type 3 Derivatives: 2 Types of Type 3
AC Charging Connector IEC 62196-2 And SAE J1772™ Harmonization IEC 62196-2 Type 1 and SAE J1772™ are common connectors IEC 62196-2 Types 1,2,3 and SAE J1772™ have common control signals IEC 62196-2 Allows For Variation Power Grid: single phase and 3 phase infrastructure Country Specific Regulations: protective shutters, etc Fixed or loose charge cables China Unique Connector And Controls
AC Charging Coupler IEC 62196-2 Types 1,2,3 And SAE J1772™ Have Common Control Signals Vehicle charging control modules and software can be common between EU and NA. Vehicle charging control modules and software development and validation is costly! Connectors are inexpensive compared to hardware and software development and validation so different connector shapes are not significant. However the fewer connectors the better! China Standard Different controls and connector will require unique software development and validation.
DC Charging Connector-”Fast Charge” DC Connector: IEC 62196-3 EU DC Connector: SAE J1772™ NA DC Connector: CHADEMO Japan DC Connector: China Working to harmonize: Type 1 or Type 2 “core”, adding DC contacts DC contact location and other physical features are common Common control signals
DC Charging Connector-”Fast Charge” IEC 62196-3 and SAE J1772™ Have Common Control Signals and Overall Physical Shape Japan CHADEMO Has Unique Control Signals and Overall Physical Shape China Standard Has Unique Control Signals and Overall Physical Shape
Charging Connector Summary AC charging harmonized sufficiently except for China EU working to reduce the number of connector Types Will reduce complexity DC charging connectors have harmonization potential Reduce number of different connectors Harmonize controls
