Fast charging for passenger cars or charging in the megawatt range for heavy-duty transportation and commercial fleets—the increasing electrification of vehicles is having an impact on the charging infrastructure. Demand is also increasing here. At the same time, developers and manufacturers are facing increasing complexity due to interoperability issues, stringent safety requirements and the need to adapt to evolving international standards such as MCS, CCS, ISO 15118, GB/T and CHAdeMO. Without comprehensive and scalable testing, manufacturers risk development delays, costly redesigns and inconsistent performance in the field.

Software-Defined Scalability

Keysight meets these challenges with test solutions that combine high-performance hardware, software-defined scalability and standard compliance.

The SL2600A Megawatt Charging Discovery System enables the validation of next-generation megawatt charging systems for heavy-duty applications and supports voltages up to 1,500 V and currents up to 1,500 A. Its modular, expandable architecture allows designers to test both electric vehicles and charging stations in a single system, increasing flexibility and reducing total cost of ownership. Designed with future standards such as NACS and CCS in mind, the SL2600A helps ensure readiness for evolving charging ecosystems while protecting long-term investments in test infrastructure.

In addition, the enhanced Scienlab Charging Discovery System SL1047A—High-Power Series offers software-scalable power from 400 A and 1,000 V, which can be extended up to 800 A and 1,500 V without hardware replacement. With support for all global charging standards, including full compliance with GB/T 2024, the system enables comprehensive compliance and interoperability testing for global EV charging ecosystems. It also offers enhanced charging communication testing capabilities with significant improvements and expanded functionality to meet the increasingly complex requirements of electric vehicle charging.

Together, these solutions help to reduce development risks, shorten time-to-market and provide reliable, standards-compliant charging systems for next-generation electric vehicles. (se)
