Electric vehicles (EVs) are rapidly gaining in popularity for their independence from fossil fuels and their environmental efficiency. They offer many advantages compared to vehicles with internal combustion engines but require powerful rechargeable batteries for their electric motors and other electronic systems. These batteries must withstand thousands of cycles of being recharged after, for example, discharging their energy during a drive. Rechargeable batteries that power EV electric motors are based on several chemistries and employ a wide range of architectures depending upon the vehicles they power.
Developers of EVs, their rechargeable batteries, and their on-board charging systems can analyze their characteristics and make them better with the help of bidirectional DC power supplies from Transcat | Axiom Rentals. These versatile instruments can source and sink electrical power over wide voltage ranges and can help better understand the impact of many charge and discharge

Providing power for testing complex electronic devices requires reliable, high-performance AC sources which often also deliver DC power. Fortunately, Transcat | Axiom Rentals offers a variety of versatile sources that can not only supply AC/DC power but also monitor its electrical parameters over widely changing environmental conditions. To support AC/DC power testing according to numerous industrial and military standards, these power sources are available with software to coordinate standards-based AC/DC power testing with single-, two-, and three-phase power supplies.
Industrial and military standards provide guidelines for evaluating a device under test (DUT) on AC or DC power. Industrial standards such as IEC 61000-4-11 and IEC 61000-4-13 from the International Electrotechnical Commission (IEC) and military standards such as MIL-STD-704 are just a few of the
