This annex describes test procedures to demonstrate compliance to the electrical safety requirements of paragraph 5.5. For example, megohmmeter or oscilloscope measurements are an appropriate alternative to the procedure described below for measuring isolation resistance. In this case it may be necessary to deactivate the on-board isolation resistance monitoring system. Before the vehicle impact test conducted, the high voltage bus voltage (Vb) (see figure 1) shall be measured and recorded to confirm that it is within the operating voltage of the vehicle as specified by the vehicle manufacturer. 1. Test setup and equipment If a high voltage disconnect function is used, measurements are to be taken from both sides of the device performing the disconnect function. However, if the high voltage disconnect is integral to the RESS or the energy conversion system and the high-voltage bus of the RESS or the energy conversion system is protected according to protection IPXXB following the impact test, measurements may only be taken between the device performing the disconnect function and the electrical loads. The voltmeter used in this test shall measure DC values and have an internal resistance of at least 10 MΩ. 2. The following instructions may be used if voltage is measured. After the impact test, determine the high voltage bus voltages (Vb, V1, V2) (see figure 1). The voltage measurement shall be made not earlier than 5 seconds but not later than 60 seconds after the impact. This procedure is not applicable if the test is performed under the condition where the electrical power train is not energized.
