compared with the current standards, this "new national standard" has made improvements and upgrades in some aspects.
the first is to improve the fire retardant performance, improved the flame retardant requirements for non-metallic materials used in electric bicycles, and limited the proportion of plastic parts used.
the second is to prevent illegal modification, which clarifies that electric bicycle controllers, batteries, and chargers should have mutual recognition and coordination functions, and increase the difficulty of tampering from a technical perspective.
to ensure riding safety,optimized the test method for rated power and maximum speed of electric motorsthe maximum design speed does not exceed 25km/h, and beidou positioning and real-time communication functions have been added.
in addition, in order to improve the practicality of the product,the weight limit for vehicles using lead-acid batteries will be relaxed from 55kg to 63kg, and it is no longer mandatory to install a pedal riding device.
the newly revised standard aims to improve the safety level of electric bicycle products, promote the standardized development of the industry, and protect the lives and property of the people. by optimizing the technical indicators of electric bicycles such as fire retardancy and plastic weight ratio, the risk of fire accidents can be reduced; illegal tampering can be reduced, and traffic accidents caused by speeding can be reduced; dynamic safety monitoring can be used to improve vehicle safety; and the range can be increased to facilitate consumer use.
the ministry of industry and information technology said that the public consultation on the "electric bicycle safety technical specifications" will last for one month. the standard text will be revised and improved based on the opinions received, and the review and approval work will be accelerated to strive for early release. after the "new national standard" is officially released, manufacturers will be given a six-month transition period to design and produce new products. in addition, an additional three-month sales transition period will be given to facilitate commercial circulation companies to digest the inventory of vehicles produced according to the old standard.
