Water tests for the power inlet are not required in GTR draft. During the 4th EVS meeting, it was agreed that the power inlet is one part of the vehicle and that the vehicle level waterproof requirement is sufficient.

Revision 6 of the electric vehicle safety GTR project plan of the informal working group on Electric Vehicle Safety.

Marked up version of document EVSTF-08-40 showing JRC comments and questions on the draft text.

OICA comments on the status of the discussions and proposed test procedure as of 13 June 2016.

Presentation of research on various REESS configurations and proposal for test and performance criteria. Korea proposes configurations for the heat, penetration (nail), and overcharge initiation methods. In addition, Korea proposes a thermal runaway definition as the condition where the cell temperature rise rate ≥ 20°C/min and would limit the maximum cell temperature to ≥ 200°C Initiation method.

OICA presentation on the proposed thermal propagation initiation methods (nail, heat, and overcharge) and concerns over the objectivity of the testing in terms of producing quantitative, comparable outcomes. OICA argues that the three proposed initiation methods are not equivalent and that overcharge should be removed. In addition, OICA could like to see a thermal runaway definition applicable to cathode or anode configurations and proposes changing the definition (detection criteria) of thermal runaway to temperature-increase rates of greater than 1.25°C/sec (75°C/min) or lower.
