Document Title UN R13: Working draft for amendments
Reference Number GRVA-14-32
Date
23 Sep 2022
Summary At the 13th session of GRVA the UK presented an informal document (GRVA-13-19) with the purpose of starting discussion on the content of UN Regulation 13, Annex 18. The proposal was made in recognition of the inconsistent understanding of the current text, identified during the discussions leading to the 03 series of amendments to UN R79 which shared common language. It is intended that using harmonised text between Regulations, as far as is practicable, will deliver more consistent application of the requirements and avoid unnecessary changes in procedures and documentation for different vehicle systems.

104. GRVA resumed consideration of an amendment proposal to Annex 18 in UN Regulation No. 13 tabled by the expert from the United Kingdom of Great Britain and Northern Ireland. GRVA noted that the expert would submit a revised proposal, or a working document, possibly based on GRVA-14-32, potentially merged with the CLEPA proposal for amendments of UN Regulation No. 13 regarding EMB, for consideration at the next GRVA session.

Intention is to update "complex electronic control systems"' assessment based mainly on work done under UN R79 to handle ACSF. UK is working with OICA on an updated CEL annex. Discussions still under way, so text is not final. Hoping to provide at least an informal document for the next GRVA with aim to adopt the electromechanical braking (EMB) proposal at the same time in a single package.
