Both SES templates have been revision and published as v1.2 is available online under Series Resources - Technical Inspection Resources - SES Templates.

Most affected are EV teams doing module testing or 60C material testing, where two unit conversions were corrected. All known 2027 SES issues have been addressed. Please report any malfunctioning parts of the SES here. We can generally fix problems with SES formulas after submission.

An approved 2027 SES is required for all teams.

• Do not delete or replace any tabs except for F.4.3 Composite Testing.
• Using programs other than Excel on the desktop for official submissions breaks formatting and formula protection, making the SES unacceptable.
• The maximum file size for an SES is 40Mb.

SES submissions are open. Reviews are generally completed in the order of submission. Submissions that are incomplete are rejected, team notified and sent to the back of the queue.

Tech Inspection Number Order:

• Teams are given up to 48 hours after each review before the Tech Inspection Order clock starts.
• The clock stops with each new submission.
• Please make sure every item is fixed, and comment with a description of each fix and where to find images in the SES.
• Please give your reviewer a schedule if there are unavoidable delays, and reasonable accommodations will be made.

Please use the same units in images to confirm entries as the SES, or show all conversions.

Fill out the SES when you have selected the design you intend to compete with. Manufacturing generally does not have to be complete before approval, only design. There is no Tech Inspection Order time increase for resubmission. Please resubmit if the car changes, so the document matches the car, and Tech Inspection is faster and less stressful. Whenever you are resubmitting, during or after approval, please explain each change, and where to find images.
