Environmental Conditions & Testing - ISO 16750

Safety standards for vehicles with electric components address environmental conditions and testing, functional safety, and other considerations relevant to electric vehicles. ISO 16750, Environmental Testing and Conditions for electrical and electronic equipment, describes the potential environmental stresses and specifies tests and requirements recommended for the specific mounting location on/in the road vehicle. ISO 26262, Road Vehicle Functional Safety, is intended to be applied to safety-related systems that include one or more electrical and/or electronic systems and that are installed in series production passenger cars with a maximum gross vehicle mass of up to 3,500 kg. ISO 16750 is related to the environmental impact of electronic equipment.

ISO 16750-1:2023

Road vehicles - Environmental conditions and testing for electrical and electronic equipment - Part 1: General

This document applies to electric and electronic systems and components for vehicles including electric propulsion systems and components with maximum working voltages according to voltage class B. It describes the potential environmental stresses and specifies tests and requirements for the specific mounting location on/in the vehicle. This document contains the terminology for the ISO 16750 series and general requirements. This document is not intended to apply to environmental requirements or testing for systems and components of motorcycles and mopeds. Electromagnetic compatibility (EMC) is not covered by this document. Systems and their components released for production, or systems and their components already under development prior to the publication date of this document, can be exempted from fulfilling the changes in this edition compared to the previous one.

ISO 16750-2:2023

Road vehicles - Environmental conditions and testing for electrical and electronic equipment - Part 2: Electrical loads

This document applies to electric and electronic systems/components for road vehicles. This document describes the potential environmental stresses and specifies tests and requirements for the specific mounting location on/in the road vehicle. This document describes electrical loads. This document is not intended to apply to environmental requirements or testing for systems and components of motorcycles and mopeds. Electromagnetic compatibility (EMC) is not covered by this document. Electrical loads are independent from the mounting location, but can vary due to the electrical impedance (including both the resistance and the inductance) in the vehicle wiring harness and connection system. Systems and their components released for production, or systems and their components already under development prior to the publication date of this document, can be exempted from fulfilling the changes in this edition compared to the previous one.

ISO 16750-3:2023

Road vehicles - Environmental conditions and testing for electrical and electronic equipment - Part 3: Mechanical loads

This document applies to electric and electronic systems and components for vehicles including electric propulsion systems and components with maximum working voltages according to voltage class B. It describes the potential environmental stresses and specifies tests and requirements recommended for the specific mounting location on/in the vehicle. This document describes mechanical loads. This document is not intended to apply to environmental requirements or testing for systems and components of motorcycles and mopeds. Systems and their components released for production, or systems and their components already under development prior to the publication date of this document, can be exempted from fulfilling the changes in this edition compared to the previous one.

ISO 16750-4:2023

Road vehicles - Environmental conditions and testing for electrical and electronic equipment - Part 4: Climatic loads

This document applies to electric and electronic systems and components for vehicles including electric propulsion systems and components with maximum working voltages according to voltage class B. It describes the potential environmental stresses and specifies tests and requirements recommended for the specific mounting location on/in the vehicle. This document describes climatic loads. This document is not intended to apply to environmental requirements or testing for systems and components of motorcycles and mopeds. Systems and their components released for production, or systems and their components already under development prior to the publication date of this document, can be exempted from fulfilling the changes in this edition compared to the previous one.

ISO 16750-5:2023

Road vehicles - Environmental conditions and testing for electrical and electronic equipment - Part 5: Chemical loads

This document applies to electric and electronic systems and components for vehicles including electric propulsion systems and components with maximum working voltages according to voltage class B. It describes the potential environmental stresses and specifies tests and requirements recommended for the specific mounting location on/in the vehicle. This document describes chemical loads. This document is not intended to apply to environmental requirements or testing for systems and components of motorcycles and mopeds. NOTE Conditions and testing for a continuous contact with chemical agents can be determined from other standards or upon agreement between the customer and the supplier. Systems and their components released for production, or systems and their components already under development prior to the publication date of this document, can be exempted from fulfilling the changes in this edition compared to the previous one.
