2. EV Passport and Inspection Process.
2.1. Anyone considering building a Bespoke EV for Competition use must supply a project outline, including details / qualification of those engineering the Vehicle for review by ASN Technical Department prior to starting construction. On-going dialogue between the entrant and the ASN throughout the build process is encouraged to minimize the risk of non-compliance with these regulations when Vehicle is inspected
2.2. Standard EVs may be issued with a Vehicle Passport without inspection upon application to the ASN.
2.3. Modified and Bespoke EVs must undergo and pass a Vehicle Passport inspection and be in possession of a valid Passport to compete irrespective of discipline or Category.
2.4. For a modified production Vehicle, the inspection will include a comprehensive visual inspection to ensure that installation of the ROPS and non-powertrain modifications have not compromised the HV system.
2.5. No repositioning of HV components( incl cables) is permitted.
2.6. For a Bespoke Vehicle a detailed technical inspection of the entire Vehicle including the EV system, and its safety systems will be required. An EVP will be issued once the Vehicle has passed the inspection.
2.7. See Chart 3 for EVP requirements.
2.8. Where a Bespoke or Modified OEM EV is intended for a single make / one make series and all Vehicles are built / modified by the same organisation then only the first Vehicle in a batch will require full inspection. All subsequent Vehicles from the batch will be issued with an EVP following written confirmation by the build organisation that the follow-on Vehicles are identical to the first Vehicle.
2.9. Electric Vehicle Inspections must be arranged by appointment with the ASN and will be carried out by an ASN Technical Official.
2.10. The Entrant must provide all data / evidence to the ASN 3 months prior to the Vehicle inspection as summarised below:
a. RESS impact protection details( Art. 8.1) if mounted underfloor. b. RESS Structural calculations or crash test / simulation results( Art. 8.3). c. UN 38.3 and MSDS for cells( Art. 9.3). d. Cell chemistry details. e. BMS including cell temperature monitoring details( Art. 10.4). f. Isolation Surveillance System details( Art. 12.20). g. Vehicle specific Emergency Services Guide( Art. 12.21). h. Detailed EV system schematic( Art. 12.22). i. Vehicle specific functional switching diagram( Art. 14). j. Crash HV Isolation FMEA( Art. 16.8). k. Details of throttle fail safe system( Art. 18). l. Off-board charger details( Art. 5.1). m. On-board charger details( Art. 19.2).
2.11. In addition to the Vehicle the Entrant must provide the following to enable the inspection to proceed:
