Proposal to extend the scope to include vehicles of category X, replace “driver” by “occupant”, and separate the scope into vehicles with regard to protection of occupants against the steering mechanism and electrical shock in a frontal collision and steering controls with regard to protection of occupants in the event of impact.

Proposal to enable application of UN R12 to ADS vehicles.

Updated from GRSP-TF-17-02 during the task force session.

Proposal to update the whole vehicle approval with regard to the series of amendments to UN R12, 46, 48, 110, 117, 127, and 135.

Proposal from GRSP to align UN R12 with the provisions of GTR 20 on post-crash electrical safety and the administrative provisions of Revision 3 to the 1958 Agreement. The amendments only impact the approval of vehicles with an electric power train operating at high voltage.

Proposal to introduce provisions for post-crash electrical safety to align with GTR 20 on electric vehicle safety.

Proposal to align UN R12 with GTR 20.

Proposal to enable approval testing under UN R137 as an alternative to UN R12 in order to avoid redundant testing requirements. The proposal adds references to the steering gear provisions of UN R137 (full width frontal impact) as a compliance alternative in parallel to the current references similarly allowing compliance via provisions in UN R94 (offset deformable barrier frontal impact).

Please note that this proposal is based upon document GRSP-60-06/Rev.1. The reference to GRSP-60-07 is incorrect.

Proposal to add references to the steering gear provisions of UN R137 (full width frontal impact) as a compliance alternative in addition to the current references requiring compliance with similar provisions in UN R94 (offset deformable barrier frontal impact).

Pursuant to GRPE work on vehicle propulsion system definitions (VPSD informal group; see document WP.29-165-17), this GRSP proposal would update the definition of the acronym “REESS” to refer to “rechargeable electrical energy storage system” across the passive safety regulations and currently proposed texts that make use of this acronym. (REESS had previously referred generically to “rechargeable energy storage systems”.)

Reference prepared by the WP.29 secretariat

Presentation outlining proposals to include performance testing of in-vehicle emergency call systems under frontal (or possibly UN R12 steering requirements) and side impact regulations.

Proposal as approved by the GRSP to introduce provisions for coupling systems used in the charging of a Rechargeable Energy Storage System (REESS).

Text from the International Organization of Motor Vehicle Manufacturers (OICA) proposing provisions for the coupling systems for charging the Rechargeable Energy Storage System (REESS).

Proposal to clarify that coupling systems of the battery-charging system (i.e., rechargeable energy storage system, REESS) which are not energized during driving need not meet the requirements established for systems designed to be energized during driving (and thus significant in case of accident).

Text adopted by the GRSP to correct the text for electric vehicles in UN R12, replacing the word “power train” with “occupants” in the referenced rules, ‘registration’ with ‘approval’ in transition provisions in accordance with WP.29 guidelines, and correcting use of the acronym “RESS” to “REESS”.

GRSP/2012/11 proposes to correct text for electric vehicles in UN Regulation Nos. 12, 94, 95 and 100, replacing the word “power train” with “occupants” in the referenced rules. This document replaces ‘registration’ with ‘approval’ in transition provisions in accordance with WP.29 guidelines.

Proposal to correct text for electric vehicles in UN Regulation Nos. 12, 94, 95 and 100. The protection from direct contact with live parts concerns occupants and not the powertrain. The proposal replaces the word “power train” with “occupants” in the referenced rules.

Proposal for amendments to UN R12, R94, and R95 to introduce provisions for excluding the REESS coupling system in cases where testing is performed under the condition that part(s) of the high voltage system are not energized.

Because the subject of protection from direct contact with live electrical parts in the regulations concerns the “occupants”, not the “power train” as currently specified, Japan proposes to exchange the terms in the appropriate paragraphs of the subject rules.

Proposal for the definition of “Exposed conductive part”.

Adopted and integrated into UN R12 as Corrigendum 1 to Amendment 4 to Revision 3.

Proposal to extend the scope to all kinds of powertrain systems above a certain working voltage level.

Proposal to extend the scope to all kinds of powertrain systems above a certain working voltage level. The modifications are based on discussions held during the meeting of the group of interested experts on Electric Vehicles Post Crash provisions (EVPC) to amend regulation Regulations Nos. 94 and 95.
