United Kingdom

Original text. Later amendments are not shown.

The efficiency of the 48V/12V DC/DC converter shall be determined under the following conditions:

  • Output voltage of 14,3 V

  • Output current of nominal power of the 48V/12V DC/DC converter divided by 14,3 V

The nominal power of the 48V/12V DC/DC converter shall be the continuous output power at the 12V side guaranteed by the manufacturer of the DC/DC converter at the conditions specified in the ISO 8854:2012.

The efficiency of the 48V/12V DC/DC converter shall be measured at least five (5) times consecutively. The average of all the measurements ( η DC ∕ DC – ) shall be calculated and used for the calculations laid down in paragraph 3.3.
