ESMA National Standards Body (NSB) of the UAE ESMA as the National Standards Body (NSB) is the SOLE AUTHORITY for Quality, Metrology and Standards and the National Certification Body of the UAE. ESMA was established as the sole standardization body in the UAE under the Law No. 28/2001. The board of directors chaired by H.E. Dr. Rashid Ahmed Bin Fahad, the Minister of Environment & Water in the UAE and is comprised by representatives of the main parties involved in the standardization of the UAE.
ESMA Mandates PROVIDING SAFETY, & PROTECTING THE CONSUMER, ECONOMY & ENVIRONMENT By ensuring that services & products (both locally manufactured or imported) are in conformity with the UAE standards
ESMA Mandates SUPPORTING NATIONAL ECONOMY By assisting national industry to enter international competition.
ESMA Mandates Programs to raise the awareness of civil society groups, individuals, government bodies, and business about the UAE standards and standardization activities.

UAE draft regulation for Electric Vehicle
The draft regulation address the specific requirements of Electric Vehicles which mainly related to the use of high-power electric equipment like: High Voltage battery Charging System Electric motor
Main Requirement in the draft Electrical Safety General requirement
Electrical Safety requirements requirement related to the electric safety in-use requirement related to the electric safety in case of impact
requirement related to the electric safety in-use Protection against electric shock - direct contact - indirect contact - Isolation resistance Marking -The symbol requirements - HV Cables requirements Functional safety Vehicle movement system shall be impossible if its connected to the vehicle inlet
requirement related to the electric safety in case of impact Ensuring protection against electric shock during and post impact To check the Retention of the Traction battery during the impact: No part of any RESS that is located outside shall enter the passenger compartment during or after the impact test. Leakage of electrolyte, during and post impact: No electrolyte from the RESS shall spill into the passenger compartment
battery Life It should be at lest 1000 number of the charge cycles, before its capacity dips below 80 85% of its original capacity It should be at lest 90% from the rated Engine Power UAE Target : Minimum Distance : 250 km Speed range : 100-110km/h electric range The electric range is determined over a number of repetitive cycles until the battery is attains the minimum level Performance The electric energy consumption The electric energy consumption is measured over 2 consecutive cycles test procedure to determine the power of electric motor - Maximum net power - Maximum 30 minutes power
Additional requirements -EMC requirements (Charging, high voltage operation etc.) (Broadband radiation ; Harmonics ; Flicker ; Transient Immunity.. ) - Braking requirements (Regenerative braking system ; Anti lock device interaction;..) - Other requirements ( Vibration, Thermal shock, Fire resistance, Short circuit protection, Overcharge protection,.)
