This part of IEC61851 , together with IEC61851-23 , applies to digital communication between a d.c. EV charging station and an electric road vehicle (EV) for control of d.c. charging, with an a.c. or d.c. input voltage up to 1000V a.c. and up to 1500V d.c. for the conductive charging procedure. The EV charging mode is mode 4, according to IEC61851-23 . The charging station supplied by high voltage a.c. supply is not covered by this standard. AnnexesA, B, and C give descriptions of digital communications for control of d.c. charging specific to d.c. EV charging systems A, B and C as defined in Part23.
