Performance Specification. Characteristics of 600 Volt DC Electrical Systems for Military Ground Vehicles

Abstract

The purpose of this specification is to provide a system of requirements for the electrical characteristics and safety of high voltage power distribution subsystems. This includes requirements for power sources, power distribution equipment, and power utilization equipment. Rather than an ideal condition (i.e. nominal voltage), this specification defines the extreme limits for normal operations and damage thresholds in steady-state and dynamic conditions. The resulting system of requirements will provide compatibility of source and load behavior for equipment within a single vehicle system, as well as provide an opportunity for commonality of power utilization equipment and power distribution equipment among a family of military ground combat vehicles with different power generation equipment.
