The particular requirements of this part of IEC 60364 apply to electrical installations in
caravans and motor caravans.
They apply to those electrical circuits and equipment intended for the use of the caravan for
habitation purposes.
They do not apply to those electrical circuits and equipment for automotive purposes.
They do not apply to the electrical installations of mobile homes, residential park homes and
transportable units.

This document specifies an open-loop test procedure to examine the effect of braking on course holding and directional behaviour of a vehicle. Specifically, the method determines how the steady-state circular response of a vehicle is altered by a braking action only. This document is applicable to passenger cars as defined in ISO 3833 and to light trucks. The open-loop manoeuvre specified in this test method is not representative of real driving conditions but is useful to obtain measures of veh...view more

This document specifies the general conditions that apply when vehicle dynamics properties are determined according to ISO test methods. In particular, it specifies general conditions for: — variables; — measuring equipment and data processing; — environment (test track and wind velocity); — test vehicle preparation (tuning and loading); — initial driving; and — test reports (general data and test conditions). These items are of general significance, regardless of the specific vehicle dynamics t...view more

This document specifies the dimensions of the test track for a closed-loop test method to subjectively determine a double lane-change which is one part of the vehicle dynamics and road-holding ability of passenger cars. It is applicable to passenger cars as defined in ISO 3833. It is also applicable to light commercial vehicles up to a gross vehicle mass of 3,5 t.

This European Standard specifies requirements intended to ensure safety and health of persons using caravan holiday homes as defined in EN 13878, as temporary or seasonal accommodation.
It specifies grades of resistance to snow loads and the stability of the structure of caravan holiday homes as well as the minimum information to be included in a user's handbook.
It also specifies the corresponding test methods.
