Covering Traction, Charging, Power Conversion and V2X Interaction

Automated Testing Equipment for EV & EVSE




The dynamic and shifting driving conditions when an electric vehicle is heading on the road stands for the fundamental technical challenges for which traction, charging, and auxiliary sub-systems continuously alternate between power sourcing and sinking, with bidirectionality featuring its highly dynamic system interaction. Further challenges lie with charging, regenerative braking, and V2X scenarios where AC and DC interfaces coordinate with each other for systematical consistency.

As a result, EV testing requires programmable, bidirectional, and regenerative power systems capable of emulating real-world electrical behaviors rather than static operating points. Accurate validation depends not only on steady-state performance, but on how power electronics react to dynamic load steps, polarity reversals, grid disturbances, and energy feedback throughout the entire test sequence.

Frequently Asked Questions About EV, EVSE & Testing Equipment

› What is EV testing and why is it important?
EV testing refers to evaluating the performance, safety, durability, and compatibility of various systems in electric vehicles, such as the battery pack, OBC, DC/DC converter, and e-motor drive. It is essential for ensuring product quality, user safety, and regulatory compliance.
› What is EVSE and what does its testing involve?
EVSE (Electric Vehicle Supply Equipment), commonly known as charging stations, must be tested for:
  • Charging compatibility with different EV models
  • Output accuracy and current stability
  • Communication protocol validation (e.g., GB/T 27930, ISO 15118)
  • Safety under abnormal conditions
› Why is OBC and BOBC testing necessary?
The OBC (On-Board Charger) ensures proper vehicle charging. BOBC (Bidirectional OBC) supports both charging and discharging (V2G functions). Testing covers:
  • Charging efficiency
  • Safety and EMC compliance
  • Bidirectional power flow control and stability
› What does DC/DC converter testing include?
DC/DC converters regulate power between high-voltage and low-voltage systems. Testing involves:
  • Input/output performance
  • Peak efficiency
  • Thermal reliability
  • Short-circuit and overvoltage protection
› What equipment is used for EV power system testing?
Common components in EV testbeds and ATE systems include:
  • Bidirectional programmable power supplies
  • Battery simulators
  • Electronic loads
  • Oscilloscopes and power analyzers
  • Automated testing systems (ATS)
› What is Power HIL (Hardware-in-the-Loop) testing?
Power HIL testing integrates real power hardware into virtual simulation environments to test systems without a full vehicle or grid. Ideal for:
  • Battery Management Systems (BMS)
  • Inverter and e-drive systems
  • OBC / BOBC testing
  • DC/DC converter validation
› Which standards should EV testing solutions comply with, and why is multi-standard coverage essential?
EV testing solutions must comply with a wide range of national and international standards to ensure safety, interoperability, and regulatory acceptance across the entire electrified drivetrain and charging ecosystem.

Vehicle-side power electronics compliance:
Standards such as GB/T 40432 (on-board charger), GB/T 24347 (DC-DC converter), and QC/T 895 define performance, protection, and reliability requirements for EV embedded power conversion systems.

Charging, interoperability, and V2X/V2L readiness:
The GB/T 18487 series and GB/T 36457.2 address conductive charging, interoperability verification, and emerging energy interaction behaviors (e.g., V2L), ensuring compatibility between vehicles, EVSE, and the grid.

Expandable to global and OEM validation frameworks:
As EV platforms move toward global deployment, test coverage often needs to extend to standards such as LV123, VW80300, VW80303, and ISO 21498-2, in addition to customer-defined test outlines and custom test cases.

In practice, multi-standard EV testing solutions should enable:
  • Full power coverage across traction, auxiliary power, and charging interfaces
  • Programmable, repeatable test sequences aligned with standards and engineering validation needs
  • Safe simulation of real-world and extreme conditions without physical risk to hardware
  • Scalable test expansion from domestic compliance to international homologation and OEM requirements
With this multi-standard foundation, manufacturers can accelerate R&D, ensure compliance, and deliver EV systems with verified performance, safety, and reliability—supporting faster adoption of electric mobility.
› Do EV test systems support both standard and custom testing scenarios?
Yes. Solutions from companies like ACTIONPOWER support:
  • Chinese national standards (e.g., GB/T 18487, GB/T 24347)
  • International standards (e.g., ISO 21498, LV123, VW80300)
  • Custom test profiles and automated report generation
