Electrically powered means of transportation are becoming widely used as people start to realize the destructive effects of using fossil fuel. Electric scooters are starting to replace the conventional motorcycles and scooters in many parts of the world. The quality of these items varies greatly and it’s important to develop a thorough QC inspection checklist and testing procedure before allowing manufactures to ship your electric scooters.
InTouch has developed standards for the testing and inspection of these items produced in China for export. This inspection protocol evaluates adherence to the following internationally recognized standards:
Deutsches Institut für Normung
The DIN EN 1986-1:1997 international standard is used to determine energy performance of different brands and models of electric scooters.
International Organization for Standardization
The following ISO standards provides the following test methods for Lithium-ion traction battery packs which are now widely used because of their high storage capacity, light weight property, and safety.
The following ISO standards detail safety specifications for electric scooters intended to be used on roads and highways.
Mobility scooters have become a popular alternative for electric wheelchairs. These electric scooters are more affordable than electric wheelchairs however are not intended to be used on public roads.
The following standards we also take into account when creating mobility scooter procedures:
The Chinese Government developed SN/T 1428-2004 to provide a uniform inspection guideline for scooters imported from and exported to China. By adhering to this standard and local transportation regulation, electric scooters outsourced from China are safe to be used in public roads and highways.
