Advancements In High Voltage Cable Design For EV Systems

Electric mobility power systems require robust HV cables designed to meet challenging application conditions. Flexibility, voltage capacity, mechanical strength, conformance with connector systems, as well as fluid and chemical resistance are just some of the factors that require careful consideration. Dramatic advances in the science of polyolefin material and irradiation technology have converged to create state-of-the-art XLPO cables for the EV market. Join Champlain Cable and IEWC to learn how the technology of high voltage cabling has, and continues to evolve as the EV/hybrid market matures.

Getting product to market is a key part of supporting new EV designs and production. Longtime partners, Champlain Cable and IEWC, have been servicing automotive manufacturers, sub-assemblers, and their subsequent supply chains with wire and cable products for on- and off-road vehicles for decades.

Choosing The Right Overvoltage Protection For EV Charging Infrastructure

Raycap is a world leader the development of industrial surge protection for a variety of applications. For the protection of Electrical Vehicle Charging Stations, Raycap has considered the recently updated and internationally accepted IEC 60364-7-722 standard which now makes clear that connection points at electrical supply chargers for EVs that are accessible to the public are part of public services, and therefore require protection against transient overvoltages.

Raycap has developed a white paper that considers the requirements of international standards, and is written to help manufacturers and operators to select the proper solutions to protect their sensitive equipment against any kind of transient voltage. This paper is the basis for the presentation.
