UN R147: Proposal for Supplement 1
Document WP.29/2024/116
26 August 2024

Proposal to remove the clause in annex 6 that stipulates different technical requirements for mechanical couplings to be used on agricultural tractors with a maximum speed in excess of 60 km/h in order to promote a common understanding of the technical requirements (i.e., reduce differences due to divergent interpretations of the clause).

26. The expert from the United Kingdom introduced ECE/TRANS/WP.29/GRSG/2024/7, to remove the possibility of different technical requirements being applied when mechanical couplings for agricultural tractors with a maximum speed in excess of 60 km/h are submitted for type approval testing. The expert from France recommended to discuss agricultural vehicles exceeding 60 km/h at the future sessions of GRSG. GRSG adopted ECE/TRANS/WP.29/GRSG/2024/7 ECE/TRANS/WP.29/GRSG/2024/7, not amended, and requested the secretariat to submit the proposal as Supplement 1 to the original version of UN Regulation No. 147 for consideration and vote at the November 2024 sessions of WP.29 and AC.1.
