SAE J1614_200801

This SAE Standard specifies requirements and design guidelines for electrical wiring systems of less than 50 V and cable diameters from 0.8 to 19 mm2 used on construction, agricultural, and general purpose industrial categories of off-road self-propelled work machines as defined in SAE J1116. Standard J1614 was first issued in March 1998 and is up for review. Input to date shows that no technical content changes are needed. However, review by CTTC - SC2 committee members has highlighted several typographical errors that should be corrected. Below is a list of those issues. 1 J1614 Standard Body a Page 6, Table 3: Change units of Resistance in the second column from micro-ohms (μΩ) to micro-ohms per millimeter (μΩ/mm). b Page 6, Table 4: Table cells that are highlighted are considered marginal. Need to further convey that fact that these table values are marginal. It is preferred that in addition to the high-lighting, the marginal values also have a line (or box) around them. c Page 6, Paragraph 4.2.7.3, at the end of this paragraph add a note in parenthesis as follows: … voltage drop is always recommended. (Note: run length” is ½ of the loop length). d Page 7, Paragraph 4.2.8, Section e, table reference should be Table 3 rather than Table 4. 2 J1614 Appendix a Page 17, Section A.6.2, all unit references to values 14.7 milli-ohms/mm and 21.496 milli-ohms/mm should be corrected to read micro-ohms as follows: 14.7 micro-ohms/mm and 21.496 micro-ohms/mm.
