21-665: Initial discussions in the Electric Power Research Institute 's Infrastructure Working Council meetings regarding issues related to three-phase charging in North America led to the development of J3068. There was a lack of non-proprietary, UL listed equipment that could be legally used in the United States. Some large electric vehicles were being charged without using ground fault protection, and without connectors that automatically de-enegerize when disconnected from

42-522: A J1772 EVSE using an adapter.   While adapters are not ideal, manufacturer specific adapters might be useful and are allowed in some countries according to IEC.  Such an adapter should be rated for 80 amps, as there is no practical way to signal the adapter's current rating.   On 7 November 2018, Greenlots announced a project to provide charging infrastructure for all electric Volvo Trucks in Southern California. "According to Greenlots,

63-786: Is at 6V level (similar to "State C" in J1772). The upcoming second edition of SAE J3068 recommends a slightly different Pilot circuit from the one defined in SAE J1772 to improve compatibility with PWM signaling. ≤ 480 / 277 V > 480 / 277 V † Power transfer using LIN-CP can exceed the current-coded limit of 63/70A: SAE J3068 has additional requirements on the coupler proximity circuit (aka vehicles with Type 2 inlets in North America) that allow them to be interoperable SAE J3400 and SAE J1772 EVSE for both AC and DC power transfer which monitor proximity.  Also, SAE J3068 has additional requirements on

84-573: Is defined in SAE J1772 and IEC 61851-1 Annex A with an analog control pilot, and is used with a variety of single-phase AC grid voltages lower than 250 VAC. LIN-CP ( L ocal I nterconnect N etwork on the C ontrol P ilot ) was originally specified in IEC 61851-1 Annex D in Edition 3. Unlike PLC over Control Pilot (IEC 15118-2), LIN CP is designed to be a low-cost digital upgrade for the analog PWM controls. LIN-CP

105-617: Is similar to the approach used by Tesla based on J2411 (Single-wire CAN), but maintains the CP voltage levels from analog PWM to be compatible with existing EVSE safety models. LIN transceivers used for J3068 must have an extended supply range. For example, the TI SN65HVDA100-Q1 operates from 5V to 27V. The extended voltage range is required because the LIN transceiver must operate when the Control Pilot

126-595: The UCLA School of Engineering and Applied Science , led the initiative, proposed by Congress, to create an independent research and development organization to support the electricity sector and address its technical and operational challenges. In 1972, at a formal hearing of the U.S. Senate Commerce Committee , Starr presented a vision for the Electric Power Research Institute to serve Congress's mandate for objective, scientific research. Starr served as

147-902: The EV and EVSE are described separately in terms of the signals they can see on the API. The details of how the LIN signals are sent between the EV and EVSE are assumed to be handled by commercial LIN software. IEC 61851-1:2017 Annex D does not presume that a commercial LIN development package is used to implement the standard. It leaves the decision how to implement the standard to the developer. Differences in logic and nomenclature between J3068 and 61851-1 Annex D are detailed in J3068 (2018) Appendix F. J3068 states that it aims to cover three-phase equipment which meets applicable North American listing standards. The core standards for Electric Vehicle Supply Equipment in North America are tri-national standards for Mexico, Canada, and

168-907: The IEC 62196-2 250 VAC single-phase rating even though the 480 VAC three-phase model explicitly supports the operating voltage rating. Given that a 480Y/277 VAC three-phase wye-connected four-wire supply is a common configuration supplied by utilities at commercial locations – under SAE J3400 and SAE J3068 the implied higher rating is taken; thus allowing single-phase charging at 277 VAC nominal for North American application. Also, SAE J3400 electric vehicles in North America are required to support power transfer under PWM-CP at 277 VAC. Under SAE J3400 and SAE J3068 EVSE cannot use PWM-CP controls when nominal system voltages exceed 480Y/277 VAC (single-phase 277 VAC). digital communication (e.g. LIN-CP) shall be used when these voltage limits are exceeded (e.g. 600Y/347 VAC – chiefly Canadian). Basic AC charging

189-504: The Mennekes connector. The control protocol is a variation of LIN which retains the analog voltage level signaling from SAE J1772 . The positive level of the LIN signal waveform can change from 12 volts to 9 or 6 volts (known as State A, State B, and State C in J1772). An earlier version of this LIN-based control protocol was published in Annex D of IEC 61851 edition 3. Major contributors to

210-446: The United States. See CANENA . They are essentially equivalent documents with different names in each country. The J3068 connector is mechanically identical to the Type 2 connector , because it makes direct references to IEC 62196 -2 and -3. Additionally, SAE J3068 supports voltage ratings which align with North American grid voltages and EVSE standards. IEC 62196-2 standard defines

231-538: The University of Delaware's Transport Electrification Center have posted a reference implementation at GitHub SAE J3068 reference implementation which includes hardware and software. An alternative LDF may be needed for LIN stacks that don't support the same signal appearing in multiple frames. See the Transport Electrification Center Blog for a link. A proprietary version is in use in "behind

357-458: The infrastructure proximity circuit (aka socket-outlets EVSE in North America) that allow them to support 48 A carry-along cable assemblies. Both side of the proximity circuit can optionally support 12V power-over-prox (see SAE 3068/2). SAE J3068, references SAE J3400 for DC power transfer with the appropriate adjustments for the coupler proximity circuit. Depending on the topology of the vehicle on-board charger, it may be possible to charge from

378-502: The nation's growing dependence upon electricity and its vulnerability to power loss. The event marked a watershed moment for the U.S. electricity sector and triggered the creation of the Electric Power Research Institute. Following the blackout, leaders in Congress held hearings in the early 1970s about the lack of research supporting the power industry . Dr. Chauncey Starr, then the Dean of

399-727: The project will be one of the first in North America to demonstrate a new heavy-duty vehicle charging standard, SAE J3068, in real-world applications." See press release . Rema USA has ANSI/UL 2251 (USA) and CAN/CSA C22.2 No. 282 (Canada) listed AC 6 63A 480VAC three-phase cordsets (52.3 kW), and two DC 8 1000VDC cordsets at 125A and 200A. See Underwriters Laboratories listing number E338388. Nuvve offers three-phase AC EVSE certified to UL and European standards with support for up to 480/277 VAC at 120 amps with SAE J3068 and IEC 61851-1 Annex D compliance, in addition to J1772 and Annex A support at lower voltages. See Maryland Electrical Testing Labs listing number E114798. Developers at

420-689: The rated operating voltage for AC basic vehicle interface as 250 VAC for single-phase and 480VAC for three-phase, and three-phase EVSE and single-phase vehicles are required to be interoperable. This implies a single-phase EV should be able to charge from a 480VAC three-phase EVSE; however this is mathematically incongruent with the 250 VAC single-phase limit. 250 ⋅ 3 = 433 V A C {\displaystyle 250\cdot {\sqrt {3}}=433V_{AC}} 277 ⋅ 3 = 480 V A C {\displaystyle 277\cdot {\sqrt {3}}=480V_{AC}} This means that 480/277 VAC EVSE would exceed

441-451: The vehicle. Therefore, SAE authorized a new task force to develop a standard that focused on heavy and medium duty applications, and more generally any vehicle charging at commercial and industrial locations or other places where 3φ power (three-phase) is available and preferred. Early within the development of the standard, it was decided that the J3068 connector and inlet would expand upon Europe's IEC 62196 type 2 connector also known as
