for SVA, there is no requirement to meet any standard -they are fitted a a second means of immobilisation.
for racing it may be different, dunno.

"FIA" Style with the secondary contacts and dump resisistor, will save your alternator if you use the cut off switch to kill the engine
when it is running.
