DaimlerChrysler DC-10615 Electrical System Performance Requirements for Electrical and Electronic Components

This joint engineering standard defines the electrical performance requirements for electrical and electronic components used in DaimlerChrysler vehicles and applies to all electrical and electronic components designed for 12 V nominal voltage that reference this standard.

The purpose of this joint engineering standard is to ensure compatibility between the vehicle electrical power system and the electrical and electronic components in the vehicle. To support this, component requirements and tests are defined in this standard.

The purpose of component testing is qualification of components from the supplier to meet vehicle requirements at a time when representative vehicles are not yet available. Deviations from the component testing requirements contained in this standard are only allowed if agreed to explicitly and documented between the supplier and the appropriate DaimlerChrysler component design and release engineering department.
