The Market Surveillance Unit (MSU) under the direction of Department for Transport (DfT) are required to test Electric Bike’s and Scooters that come onto the market to ensure they are fit for road use. This comprises of the Electrically Assisted Pedal Cycle (EAPC) work programme and establish non-compliance against suspected products and companies. The testing equipment was provided with standalone IT equipment which does not require connecting to DVSA network or require servicing via DVSA’s current IT service provider. Further testing equipment was then purchased for expanding markets and further programme expectations and requirements assigned to MSU by DfT. This included additional rollers/tracks to allow for testing of other types of electric cycle, such as 3 or 4 wheeled ‘cargo’ cycles, which are becoming increasingly more prevalent in the marketplace. MSU are required to enforce against any non-compliant vehicles, and the evidence gained from testing such vehicles against regulatory standards is imperative to the investigations. The additional e-scooter extensions are also essential as MSU continues its investigations into companies that supply electric scooters through a work programme allocated by DfT. Failure to ensure the calibrations and safety standards are upheld could have legal and health implications. To complete this work various pieces of equipment within the equipment they use need either yearly or Bi-Yearly calibration, these are: - Isolation Amplifiers - Temperature Probes - Current Transducers - Torque Sensors Post Collision Examinations (PCE) are carried out by DVSA Enforcement staff that have been specifically trained to carry out investigations on behalf of local Police Forces in their particular Area, when major Road Traffic Accidents have occurred.
