183 FOREWORD
184 1) The International Electrotechnical Commission (IEC) is a worldwide organization for standardization comprising
185 all national electrotechnical committees (IEC National Committees). The object of IEC is to promote international
186 co-operation on all questions concerning standardization in the electrical and electronic fields. To this end and
187 in addition to other activities, IEC publishes International Standards, Technical Specifications, Technical Reports,
188 Publicly Available Specifications (PAS) and Guides (hereafter referred to as “IEC Publication(s)”). Their
189 preparation is entrusted to technical committees; any IEC National Committee interested in the subject dealt with
190 may participate in this preparatory work. International, governmental and non-governmental organizations liaising
191 with the IEC also participate in this preparation. IEC collaborates closely with the International Organization for
192 Standardization (ISO) in accordance with conditions determined by agreement between the two organizations.
193 2) The formal decisions or agreements of IEC on technical matters express, as nearly as possible, an international
194 consensus of opinion on the relevant subjects since each technical committee has representation from all
195 interested IEC National Committees.
196 3) IEC Publications have the form of recommendations for international use and are accepted by IEC National
197 Committees in that sense. While all reasonable efforts are made to ensure that the technical content of IEC
198 Publications is accurate, IEC cannot be held responsible for the way in which they are used or for any
199 misinterpretation by any end user.
200 4) In order to promote international uniformity, IEC National Committees undertake to apply IEC Publications
201 transparently to the maximum extent possible in their national and regional publications. Any divergence between
202 any IEC Publication and the corresponding national or regional publication shall be clearly indicated in the latter.
203 5) IEC itself does not provide any attestation of conformity. Independent certification bodies provide conformity
204 assessment services and, in some areas, access to IEC marks of conformity. IEC is not responsible for any
205 services carried out by independent certification bodies.
206 6) All users should ensure that they have the latest edition of this publication.
207 7) No liability shall attach to IEC or its directors, employees, servants or agents including individual experts and
208 members of its technical committees and IEC National Committees for any personal injury, property damage or
209 other damage of any nature whatsoever, whether direct or indirect, or for costs (including legal fees) and
210 expenses arising out of the publication, use of, or reliance upon, this IEC Publication or any other IEC
211 Publications.
212 8) Attention is drawn to the Normative references cited in this publication. Use of the referenced publications is
213 indispensable for the correct application of this publication.
214 9) Attention is drawn to the possibility that some of the elements of this IEC Publication may be the subject of patent
215 rights. IEC shall not be held responsible for identifying any or all such patent rights.
216 IEC 62196-3 has been prepared by subcommittee 23H: Plugs, socket-outlets, and couplers for
217 industrial and similar applications, and for electric vehicles, of IEC technical committee 23:
218 Electrical accessories. It is an International Standard.
219 This third edition cancels and replaces the second edition published in 2022. This edition
220 constitutes a technical revision.
221 This edition includes the following significant technical changes with respect to the previous
222 edition:
223 a) The content of IEC TS 62196-3-1 has been integrated into this document as normative
224 Annex CCC. As far as applicable, the clause numbers are identical with the main part.
225 Added subclauses, tables and figures start with the number 100 to avoid confusion with
226 the main part.
227 b) interchangeability requirements have been removed from the title of Part 3;
228 c) increased ratings for all configurations;
229 d) reference to new tests in IEC 62196-1 (Clauses 34, 35, 36 and 37).

243 requirements in this document supplement or modify the corresponding clauses in
244 IEC 62196-1:2022. Where the text indicates an "addition" to or a "replacement" of the relevant
245 requirement, test specification or explanation of IEC 62196-1:2022, these changes are made to
246 the relevant text of IEC 62196-1:2022, which then becomes part of this document. Where no
247 change is necessary, the words "Clause X of IEC 62196-1:2022 is applicable" are used.
248 Subclauses, figures, tables, or notes which are additional to those in IEC 62196-1:2022 are

254 The committee has decided that the contents of this document will remain unchanged until the
255 stability date indicated on the IEC website under webstore.iec.ch in the data related to the

263 INTRODUCTION
264 IEC 61851 (all parts) specifies requirements for electric vehicle (EV) conductive supply
265 equipment.
266 IEC 62196 (all parts) specifies the requirements for plugs, socket-outlets, vehicle connectors,
267 vehicle inlets and cable assemblies as described in IEC 61851 (all parts).
268 Charging using off-board DC charging equipment can be achieved by the direct connection of
269 an electric vehicle to DC EV supply equipment incorporating control and communication circuits.
270 To support the connection of DC power for such vehicles, this document provides the standard
271 interface configurations of DC vehicle couplers and accessories to be used in conductive
272 charging of electric vehicles, taking the most frequent charging situations into consideration.
273 IEC 62196 is divided into several parts as follows:
274 – Part 1: General requirements, comprising clauses of a general character.
275 – Part 2: Dimensional compatibility requirements for AC pin and contact-tube accessories.
276 – Part 3: Dimensional compatibility requirements for DC and AC/DC pin and contact-tube
277 vehicle couplers.
278 – Part 4: Dimensional compatibility requirements for DC pin and contact-tube accessories for
279 Class II or Class III applications.
280 – Part 6: Dimensional compatibility requirements for DC pin and contact-tube couplers for
281 applications using a system of protective electrical separation.

These contacts are only available in Configuration EE single-phase vehicle inlet. They may be used as portion
of basic interface, see IEC 62196-2:2022, Standard Sheets 2-I.
c
These contacts are optional in Configuration FF. They may be used as a portion of basic interface, see
IEC 62196-2:2022, Standard Sheets 2-II.
d
These contacts may be used as basic interface. For requirements for basic interface see IEC 62196-2:2022,

h
Products with thermal transport shall be deployed according to Annex CCC.
393 The basic portion of the combined vehicle inlet can be used with a basic connector for either
394 AC charging or with a combined vehicle connector for DC charging.
395 Combined couplers shall only be used for DC charging with the "DC EV supply equipment of
396 System C" described in IEC 61851-23:—, Annex CC.
397 NOTE 1 Implementation of all aspects (i.e., topology and communication) according to IEC 61851-23:—, Annex CC
398 ensures that:
399 This system allows DC charging but prevents AC and DC charging at the same time.
400 – AC chargeable EVs with basic vehicle inlets do not need any means of protecting themselves against DC voltage
401 at the inlet. This protection is provided by the DC charging system.
402 – Vehicle protection against mischarging in case of fault is provided in accordance with ISO 17409:2020.
403 NOTE 2 If the AC or DC ratings of a mating connector and inlet differ, the coupler (mating pair) is used at the lower
404 rating of either the vehicle connector or vehicle inlet of the mating accessory.
405 NOTE 3 ISO 17409 will be revised to ISO 5474 series (under development).
