Many organizations have established standards that address lithium-ion battery safety, performance, testing, and maintenance. Standards are norms or requirements that establish a basis for the common understanding and judgment of materials, products, and processes.
The UL Standard for Safety for Lithium Batteries consists of a series of electrical, mechanical, and environmental tests for a diverse assortment of user-replaceable Li-ion batteries.
To ensure that LiBs reach the required safety norms and to reduce the risk of TR, battery safety standards have been developed. They facilitate and regulate the usage of LiBs available on the market by proposing standardised settings and tests.
These standards should be referenced when procuring and evaluating equipment and professional services. Many organizations have established standards that address lithium-ion battery safety, performance, testing, and maintenance.
All lithium-ion batteries are required to undergo testing to UN 38.3 prior to shipping. These test subject batteries and cells to conditions they would experience during shipping and handling, including extreme temperature conditions, shock, impact and short circuit testing to ensure the stability of batteries and cells.
Overall, while certification of battery standards does not ensure a LiB’s safety, further investigations in battery safety testing and the development of new standards can surely uncover the battery safety issues to assist efforts to ensure that future generations of LiBs are safer and more reliable.
