Scope
GB/T 42284.4-2022 is the English-translated version of 道路车辆 电动汽车驱动系统用电气及电子设备的环境条件和试验 第4部分:气候负荷.
GB/T 42284.4-2022 covers the climatic side of qualifying electric drive equipment, where Part 3 covered the mechanical. The loads are temperature, humidity, thermal shock, salt and the corrosive atmospheres a vehicle meets, and for high-voltage equipment they matter more than they do for ordinary automotive electronics. The reason is insulation: at voltage class B the clearances and creepage distances that keep the high-voltage system isolated are the safety barrier, and humidity, condensation and salt contamination degrade exactly that. A cold start after a humid night can leave condensation on a busbar; road salt finds its way into an underbody enclosure over a winter. Temperature also drives the failure mechanism that ends most power electronics: repeated expansion and contraction fatigues the solder and the bond wires under the switching devices, so the number of thermal cycles matters as much as the extremes. This part specifies the climatic load requirements and the corresponding tests for electrical and electronic equipment in electric propulsion drive systems at voltage class B. Under ICS 43.040.10 and CCS T36, it is written for drivetrain component suppliers, vehicle manufacturers and testing laboratories.

between which the degree of consistency is identical, to adapt to the technical
conditions in China and improve operability;
-- Replace IEC 60068-2-52 (see 5.4.3.2.1) with the normative reference GB/T
2423.18, between which the degree of consistency is identical, to adapt to the
technical conditions in China and improve operability;
-- Replace IEC 60068-2-14 (see 5.2.1.2) with the normative reference GB/T 2423.22,
between which the degree of consistency is identical, to adapt to the technical
conditions in China and improve operability;
-- Replace IEC 60068-2-60 (see 5.8.2) with the normative reference GB/T 2423.51,
between which the degree of consistency is identical, to adapt to the technical
conditions in China and improve operability;
-- Replace IEC 60664-1 (see 5.11.2) with the normative reference GB/T 16935.1,
between which the degree of consistency is identical, to adapt to the technical
conditions in China and improve operability;
-- Replace ISO 16750-1 (see Clause 3) with the normative reference GB/T 28046.1;
the degree of consistency between the two documents is modified, to adapt to the
technical conditions in China and improve operability;
-- Replace ISO 20653 (see 5.10.2) with the normative reference GB/T30038,
between which the degree of consistency is modified, to adapt to the technical
conditions in China and improve operability;
-- Replace ISO 19453-1 (see Clause 3) with the normative reference GB/T 42284.1,
between which the degree of consistency is modified, to adapt to the technical
conditions in China and improve operability;
-- Add the applicable conditions for cold water shock tests (see 5.3.1);
-- Adjust the substitution relationship between the salt spray combined test and the
other two salt spray tests in 5.4.3.1 and Table 9 in Clause 6.For unsealed
systems/components that will cause electrical failure due to salt water entering
the DUT, the salt spray combined test can only be used to substitute the test of
5.4.1.
This following editorial modifications are also made to this document.
-- Change “IP5K0” and “IP5K” in Table A.1 of Annex A to “IP5KX”. The waterproof
grade of this part can be determined through negotiation between the supplier and
the customer.

1 Scope
GB/T 42284.4-2022 covers the climatic side of qualifying electric drive equipment, where Part 3 covered the mechanical. The loads are temperature, humidity, thermal shock, salt and the corrosive atmospheres a vehicle meets, and for high-voltage equipment they matter more than they do for ordinary automotive electronics. The reason is insulation: at voltage class B the clearances and creepage distances that keep the high-voltage system isolated are the safety barrier, and humidity, condensation and salt contamination degrade exactly that. A cold start after a humid night can leave condensation on a busbar; road salt finds its way into an underbody enclosure over a winter. Temperature also drives the failure mechanism that ends most power electronics: repeated expansion and contraction fatigues the solder and the bond wires under the switching devices, so the number of thermal cycles matters as much as the extremes. This part specifies the climatic load requirements and the corresponding tests for electrical and electronic equipment in electric propulsion drive systems at voltage class B. Under ICS 43.040.10 and CCS T36, it is written for drivetrain component suppliers, vehicle manufacturers and testing laboratories.
This document specifies requirements for the electric propulsion systems and
components with maximum working voltages according to voltage class B. This
document describes the potential environmental stresses and specifies requirements
recommended for different stress levels on/in the vehicle. This document contains
definitions, mounting location, operating mode and other general requirements.
