EV Circuit Breaker Short-Time Withstand Current Test System IEC 62196-1 6500A Automated

EV Circuit Breaker Short-Time Withstand Current Test System IEC 62196-1

Product Overview

This automated short-time withstand current test system is engineered for evaluating the performance of EV circuit breakers, MCBs, MCCBs, and protective switching devices under high-current short-circuit conditions. Fully compliant with IEC 62196-1 and IEC 60947-2, the system delivers precise current pulses up to 6500A with programmable duration and comprehensive data acquisition.

Applicable Standards

• IEC 62196-1:2022 – EV conductive charging systems
• IEC 60947-2 – Low-voltage switchgear and controlgear – Circuit-breakers
• IEC 60898-1 – Circuit-breakers for overcurrent protection
• GB 14048.2 – National standard for low-voltage circuit breakers

Key Features

• 6500A High Current Output: Precisely controlled short-time current pulses with adjustable duration from 0.05s to 10.0s for comprehensive breaker evaluation
• PLC Automated Operation: 7-inch color touch screen interface with pre-programmed test sequences, automated data acquisition, and one-touch report generation
• Multi-Point Temperature Monitoring: 16 independent K-Type thermocouple channels for simultaneous thermal analysis of breaker contacts and terminals
• Dual Standard Compliance: Pre-configured test profiles for both IEC 62196-1 and IEC 60947-2, with programmable parameters for other standards
• Advanced Safety System: Multi-layer protection including emergency stop, over-current cutoff, phase loss detection, and thermal overload shutdown
• Comprehensive Data Logging: Built-in storage for 1000+ test records with USB export for compliance documentation and trend analysis

Technical Specifications

Test Procedure

1. Mount the circuit breaker on the dedicated test fixture with proper terminal connections
2. Attach thermocouples to breaker terminals, contacts, and enclosure
3. Configure test parameters: current level, duration, number of cycles, and pass/fail criteria
4. Select applicable standard profile (IEC 62196-1 or IEC 60947-2) or create custom sequence
5. Initiate automated test – system applies short-time current and records all data
6. Review results on touch screen and export compliance report via USB or Ethernet

Applications

Ideal for EV charging infrastructure manufacturers, circuit breaker production lines, third-party certification laboratories, and quality control departments conducting type testing, routine testing, and product development of MCBs, MCCBs, RCCBs, and related protective devices used in EV charging systems.
