The IWG-EMC 51st session (March 2026) addressed the roadmap for UN R10.08 amendments and proposals. Key discussion items included transitional provisions for UN R10.07, artificial network corrections for Supplement 3, harmonics and flicker requirements, radiated emissions aligned with CISPR standards, and extensive work on automated driving system (ADS) fitness requirements. The group extensively debated ADS test configurations, immunity and emissions testing, laboratory capabilities, and steering system requirements. Multiple proposals—including IWG-EMC-51-04, IWG-EMC-51-06, and IWG-EMC-51-07 on harmonics and flicker—were discussed. The session concluded with plans to submit ADS fitness proposals and artificial network corrections as Supplement 3 of UN R10.07 to GRE, with next meetings scheduled for May and July.

Proposal to insert new paragraph 5.3. into UN R178 (Emergency Lane Keeping Systems). The new paragraph requires that the effectiveness of ELKS shall not be adversely affected by magnetic or electrical fields, demonstrated by fulfilling technical requirements and respecting transitional provisions of the 06 or any subsequent series of amendments to UN R10. This proposal aims to ensure Electromagnetic Compatibility and make the reference future proof for potential ELKS requirements in future series of amendments to UN R10, based on GRVA-24-05/Rev.2.

Proposal to amend UN Regulation No. 10 (Electromagnetic Compatibility) through a Supplement to the 07 series of amendments to fit Automated Driving System requirements. The proposal introduces new paragraphs defining ADS and ADS test configuration; amends paragraph 1.3 to include ADS control; expands paragraph 2.12 on immunity-related functions to cover ADS sensor performance; deletes paragraphs 2.26 and 2.27; adds paragraph 6.11.3 on special ADS requirements; and introduces an “Active ADS Mode” test table in Annex 6 paragraph 2.1.1.2, establishing test conditions for vehicles with active ADS features performing the Dynamic Driving Task.

The document discusses transitional provisions for UN R10.07 series amendments, which entered into force June 2025. Contracting Parties shall not refuse type approvals under the 07 series amendments. As from 1 September 2029, Contracting Parties need not accept type approvals under preceding series first issued after that date, but shall continue accepting those first issued before that date for vehicles, vehicle systems, equipment, and parts not affected by changes introduced by the 07 series amendments. The document references ECE/TRANS/WP.29/1044 rev3 for general transitional provision guidance. Nearly all vehicles and ESAs will not be granted extensions for UN R10.06 after 1 September 2029, except those complying only with broadband emissions.
