Other Vehicle Electronics Standards cover rotating electrical machines (motors) for rail and road vehicles, starter motors, technical documentation of electrical and electronic systems, lamps, switching devices, and other vehicle electronics standards. This collection of topics serves to complement the previous categories, bringing to light smaller areas of standardization that do not normally receive as large of a focus. These standards are related to vehicle ignition.
This International Standard applies to ignition coils for inductive energy storage. It defines test methods for ignition coils used in ignition systems with solid state switching of spark ignited internal combustion engines.
This document specifies the design and/or evaluation with the specific equipment, conditions and methods for distributorless battery ignition systems intended for use in various internal combustion engines including automotive, marine, motorcycle and utility engine applications. The test procedures listed in this document are limited to measurements performed on a test bench only and do not include measurements made directly on engines or vehicles. This document is not intended to supply information for battery ignition systems used in aircraft applications of any type.
ISO 8856:2014 lays down test methods and general requirements for the determination of the electrical characteristics of DC starter motors intended to start internal combustion engines of road vehicles.
