Product Code:SAE J1645 Title:Fuel Systems and Components - Electrostatic Charge Mitigation Issuing Committee:Fuel Systems Standards Committee Scope:This SAE Surface Vehicle Recommended Practice deals with electrostatic charge phenomena that may occur in automotive fuel systems and applies to the following:鈥uels that are in a liquid state at ambient temperatures and atmospheric pressures and are contained in vehicle fuel tanks that operate at or near atmospheric pressure. This includes gasoline and diesel fuels as well as their blends with additives such as alcohols, esters and ethers whether the additives are petroleum based or bio-fuel based.鈥he group of components that comprise the fuel system (in contact and not in contact with fuels).鈥ther components in proximity to the fuel system that may be affected by electrostatic fields caused by the fuel system.鈥lectrostatic phenomena that arise from or are affected by the following aspects of vehicle or fuel system operation:oFlowing fuel in the fuel delivery systemoFlowing fuel being dispensed to the vehicle while it is being fueled
