VDE - recognized partner for motor vehicles and electromobility
Due to this appointment by the KBA, the VDE Institute can perform tests on electric vehicles for obtaining the e1 mark. They are based on the Highway Traffic Act (Straßenverkehrszulassungsordnung), the Vehicle Parts Act (Fahrzeugteileverordnung), the European Community’s guidelines and regulations along with regulations according to the Agreement of the Economic Commission for a United Nations of Europe (ECE regulations).
Pedelecs and E-Bikes
Retailers and consumers are increasingly requiring that electric vehicles be safe to operate and pose no danger both to the driver and their environment. To ensure safety, pedelecs and e-bikes not only need to meet the mechanical requirements of a bicycle. Furthermore, electrical components must be tested for safety, from the motor and battery to the cables and wires and even the switches.
The VDE Institute offers all these tests from a single source of experts with decades of experience.
Functional safety of mobile machines
Mobile machines in this context are battery-powered motor sport devices such as e-bikes, hoverboards or even civilian drones. Since they are used in public spaces by users who mostly lack prior professional knowledge, they are subject to high safety requirements.
Functional safety tests verify that the vehicle is safe under defined conditions. They include predictable misuse, the error rates of critical parts and systematic errors in development and production. Furthermore, compliance with the CE declaration of conformity is reviewed. This ensures that the manufacturer and distributing company have performed their due diligence.
