The rise of electric vehicles (EVs) has led to a significant increase in the demand for reliable and efficient charging infrastructure. As EV adoption grows worldwide, the importance of safety and efficiency in charging systems becomes ever more apparent. One key component in ensuring these attributes is the relay, a crucial part of the electric vehicle charging system. The IEC 61811 EV Relay standard has been developed to guide the design, performance, and application of relays used in electric vehicle (EV) charging stations. This standard provides a framework for ensuring that relays meet stringent safety, environmental, and operational requirements, which are critical for maintaining the overall reliability and safety of EV charging stations.
