Product validation

The test for the required behavior of an HV component during present overvoltage during load dump is covered by the “Overvoltage” test. No separate test is required.

The test for control measures for voltage limitation during load dump shall be carried out for the HV components specified by the OEM.

The effectiveness of the voltage limiting function shall be verified for operation at maximum load and subsequent load dump.

An appropriate test procedure shall be documented by the supplier and agreed upon with the OEM.

100% standard production test

The control measures for voltage limiting during load dump shall be verified within the scope of the functional tests.

This test may be performed within the scope of the agreed functional test.

An appropriate test procedure shall be specified by the supplier and agreed upon with the OEM.
