This standard includes the requirement for side impact protection. Tests require that the shell is subjected to a total of 150J of impact energy, 100J to the top of the helmet and 50J to the side (up to 60° from the crown) of the helmet. Penetration testing is also required with a “blade” striker being dropped from 2.5m to give impact energy of 25J on to the top of the helmet and on to the side of the helmet with an impact energy of 20J from 2m.
