Abstract
Electric Vehicle (EV) battery chargers must safely and completely recharge EV batteries and do so with minimum involvement of the users. Industry generated standards for EV components promoting safety, interchangeability and uniformity of features and functions will enhance user acceptance of EV’s. Many standards already exist for battery chargers which are similar to those used for EV’s. By reviewing existing standards together with the unique requirements of EV battery chargers, the industry will be in a position to establish standards when it has matured sufficiently to do so.
