Battery safety standards refer to regulations and specifications established to ensure the safe design, manufacturing, and use of batteries.
IEC 60086: International standard for the performance and safety requirements of primitive batteries. CE certification: Battery products that meet European battery standards need to obtain CE certification. REACH regulation: Chemical information is required to ensure the safety of battery materials.
For lithium batteries, key standards are: IEC 62281 (Safety of primary and secondary lithium cells and batteries during transport) This standard is similar to UN/DOT 38.3. The IEC System for Conformity Testing and Certification of Electrotechnical Equipment and Components is known as the IECEE.
If it is, let’s look at the battery monitoring standards of each country. International standard IEC 62133: Battery safety performance. IEC 61960: Secondary battery performance and safety requirements of international standard. IEC 60086: International standard for the performance and safety requirements of primitive batteries.
Battery standards are mainly developed by the European Committee for Electro-technical Standardization (CENELEC), the International Electro-technical Commission (IEC), and sometimes by the International Standards Organization (ISO) and within the United Nations Economic Commission for Europe (UN ECE).
Performance and Durability Requirements (Article 10) Article 10 of the regulation mandates that from 18 August 2024, rechargeable industrial batteries with a capacity exceeding 2 kWh, LMT batteries, and EV batteries must be accompanied by detailed technical documentation.
