Technical Requirements for Current Collectors for ground-level feeding system on road vehicles in operation. | Status: Current

1 Scope This document specifies the general characteristics which are to be applied to ground level current collector devices, to enable conductive current collection by road vehicles from a feeding track integrated in the roadway. It defines the interfaces between the current collector device and its environment as well as the electrical safety concept. It also specifies the necessary tests for the current collector devices and gives recommendations for their maintenance. This document is applicable to current collector devices on road vehicles for ground-level feeding operation on electrified public roads and highways. This document is not applicable to motorcycles (including tricycles and quadricycles). This document is not applicable to vehicles or electric buses with dynamic or static inductive charging systems and related power supplies.
