Full Description

IEC TS 63379:2026 document is applicable to vehicle couplers with pins and contact-tubes of standardized
configuration, herein also referred to as "accessories", and to cable assemblies intended for
use in electric vehicle conductive charging systems which incorporate control means, with rated
operating voltage not exceeding 1 500 V DC and a rated current up to and including 3 000 A
that employ:
a) thermal sensing, or
b) thermal transport and thermal sensing,
with the system architecture described in 4.100.
These accessories and cable assemblies are used only in conductive charging systems for
circuits specified in IEC 61851-23-3:20─.
These accessories are intended to be connected to cables according to IEC 62893-4-1 or
IEC TS 62893-4-2.
As an option, these accessories are intended to operate with an automated connection means
according to IEC 61851-27.
These accessories and cable assemblies are intended to be used at an ambient temperature
between −30 °C and +40 °C.
These accessories are intended to be connected to cables with copper or copper-alloy
conductors.
NOTE Different materials for conductors need further consideration
