RTRDA conducted tests on the battery-powered locomotive (EV Locomotive) using standard testing methods developed specifically for Thailand.
On June 20, 2024, the Research and Development of Standards and Testing team conducted the tests on the battery-powered locomotive (EV Locomotive) at Krung Thep Aphiwat Central Terminal Station.
This ongoing testing supports the development of the second edition of the testing standards, specifically focusing on standards for testing electric charging stations (Charging Stations) for battery-powered locomotives. The tests measured electromagnetic compatibility (EMC) to ensure compliance with IEC 62920 (Photovoltaic Power Generating Systems - EMC Requirements and Test Methods for Power Conversion Equipment) and other related international standards, including:
1. Electromagnetic Emission Test: This test measures the electromagnetic waves emitted from electric charging stations.
2. Electromagnetic Immunity Test: This test evaluates the capability of battery-powered locomotive equipment to resist external electromagnetic interference.
3. Magnetic Field Exposure Test: This test assesses the magnetic field exposure caused by direct current and alternating current to determine the intensity of magnetic fields that may affect the health of workers.
These activities are part of the preparation of a set of battery-powered locomotive (EV Locomotive) testing standards that RTRDA has developed for use in Thailand in Phase 1.
