The Laboratory has capability to test both AC/ DC electric vehicle (EV) supply equipment (EVSE) or EV Charging station or EV Chargers up to capacity of 22kW(AC) & 50kW(DC). The EVCTR laboratory is able to verify the efficiency, output ripples, charging performance, electrical safety performance, EMI EMC, and communication protocols as per the national and international standards covering all charging configurations viz. CCS, CHAdeMO, GB/T and Bharat chargers. The laboratory is accredited as per ISO/IEC 17025.

Major testing standards for EV chargers that can be tested here are:

  • IS 17017-1 (IEC 61851-1)
  • IS 17017-23 (IEC 61851-23)
  • IEC 61851-24
  • IS 17017-21-2 (IEC 61851-21-2)
