SNZ PAS 6010:2021
Electric vehicle (EV) chargers for commercial applications
SNZ PAS 6010: Electric vehicle (EV) chargers for commercial applications is targeted exclusively at plug-in type EVs.
The PAS has been prepared by representatives from the motor vehicle industry, electrical engineering, energy retailers and transport sectors as a collation of best-practice advice to guide New Zealand publicly facing businesses, suppliers of electric vehicle supply equipment (EVSE), associated equipment and services to adopt a best practice approach for public and commercial EV charging.
The PAS is designed to become a single touch point document, where all relevant general EV charging information is contained, and incorporates:
WorkSafe New Zealand safety requirements and Waka Kotahi NZ Transport Agency guidance.
Advice concerning the energy efficiency transmission of electricity from the grid to an EV in a commercial installation setting, and the types of chargers available to optimise this efficiency. The New Zealand Government Procurement Rules; selection criteria for government funding and investment. This is administered by government agencies, who are expected to apply this guideline.
