UNECE R10, ISO 26262, IP ratings and what the documents actually say.
OBC cybersecurity under UNECE R155 depends on vehicle-level risk management, secure charging interfaces, controlled communications, supplier evidence, lifecycle monitoring, and clear responsibilities between the OEM and
ISO 15118 Plug and Charge requires a defined vehicle communication architecture, certificate lifecycle, interoperability test plan, and clear ownership across the OBC, EVCC, backend, and charging-equipment suppliers.
OEM buyers should request a converter safety case, defined safety goals, isolation strategy, diagnostic coverage, fault reactions, and objective supplier evidence aligned with the vehicle-level safety concept.
