This part of ISO 6469 specifies requirements for operational safety means and protection against failures related to hazards specific to electrically propelled road vehicles, including battery-electric vehicles (BEVs), fuel-cell vehicles (FCVs) and hybrid electric vehicles (HEVs), for the protection of persons inside and outside the vehicle and the vehicle environment. This part of ISO 6469 does not apply to motorcycles and vehicles not primarily intended as road vehicles, such as material handling trucks or fork-lift trucks. Requirements related to internal combustion engine (ICE) systems of HEVs are not covered in this part of ISO 6469. This part of ISO 6469 applies only if the maximum working voltage of the on-board electrical propulsion system is lower than the upper voltage class B limit (see 3.11). This part of ISO 6469 does not provide comprehensive safety information for manufacturing, maintenance and repair personnel.
