Scope
GB/T 20717-2024 is the English-translated version of 道路车辆 牵引车和挂车之间的电连接器(15 芯)24V15 芯型.
GB/T 20717-2024 specifies the dimensions, the application, and the testing and special requirements of 15-pin electrical connectors for road vehicles.
Clause 1 states that the document applies to the connection of the electrical equipment between a tractor and its trailer with a nominal supply voltage of 24 V, with the exception of the braking system and the running system, and that it also applies to a storage socket used to hold the plug when plug and socket are separated and to a conversion device between 7-core and 15-core connectors.
The table of contents gives clause 3, Terms and Definitions, clause 4, Size, with subclauses on general requirements, the plug, the socket and the storage socket, clause 5, Connector Applications, with subclauses on general matters, contact arrangement, contact marking, terminals and connecting cables, and clause 6, Tests and special requirements, with subclauses on general matters, preventing mismatches, and connection and disconnection; the document closes with the normative Appendix A, Adaptation between 7-core 24N and 24S connectors and 15-core connectors.
Clause 2 cites ISO 1185, ISO 3731, ISO 4091, ISO 7638-1 and ISO 7638-2, and its note on GB/T 5054 (all parts) names ISO 4141 (all parts), whose own entry the page does not print.
The foreword states that the document is equivalent to ISO 12098:2020, that it was proposed by the Ministry of Industry and Information Technology and is under the jurisdiction of the National Technical Committee on Automotive Standardization (SAC/TC114), and that the main technical changes against the previous edition are the replacement of several GB/T normative references by ISO documents, changes to the dimensions and markings of some plugs and sockets, and the deletion of the requirements for connector location and free space.

Foreword
This document is in accordance with the provisions of GB/T 1.1-2020 "Guidelines for standardization work Part 1: Structure and drafting rules for standardization documents" Drafting.
This document replaces GB/T 20717-2006 "Electrical connectors between road vehicles tractors and trailers 24V 15 core type" and Compared with GB/T 20717-2006, in addition to structural adjustments and editorial changes, the main technical changes are as follows.
a) Replace the normative reference GB/T 5053.3 with ISO 4091 (see Chapter 3, 6.1, 6.3, Chapter 3, 6.1, 6.3 of the 2006 edition);
b) The dimensions and markings of some plugs have been changed (see Figure 1, Figure 1 of the 2006 edition);
c) The dimensions and markings of some sockets have been changed (see Figure 2, Figure 2 of the 2006 edition);
d) Deleted the requirements for connector location and free space (see 5.2 of the 2006 edition);
e) Replace the normative reference GB/T 5054 with ISO 4141 (see 5.5, 5.5 of the 2006 edition);
f) Replace the normative references GB/T 20716.1 and GB/T 20716.2 with ISO 7638-1 and ISO 7638-2 (see 6.2, 6.2 of the 2006 edition);
