Specifications

This part of IEC 60896 is applicable to Lead-Acid cells and batteries which are designed for service in fixed locations and which are permanently connected to the load and to the DC power supply. Part 11 of the standard is applicable to vented types only. The object of this standard is to specify general requirements and main characteristics with corresponding test methods associated with all types and construction modes of Lead-Acid stationary batteries, excluding valve-regulated types.

This international standard provides general information about secondary batteries used in PVES and the typical methods of test used for the verification of battery performance. This standard does not include specific information relating to battery sizing, method of charge or PVES design. NOTE: This standard is applicable to Lead-Acid and Nickel Cadmium cells and batteries. This standard will be amended to include other electrochemical systems when they become available.

Specifies marking, designation, dimensions, tests and performance requirements for portable sealed Nickel Cadmium small prismatic, cylindrical and button rechargeable single cells, suitable for use in any orientation.

Specifies marking, designation, dimensions, tests and performance requirements for portable sealed nickel-metal hydride, small prismatic, cylindrical and button rechargeable single cells, suitable for use in any orientation. This third edition cancels and replaces the second edition published in 2003 of which it constitutes a technical revision.

This standard and standard 62133-2 below are in development and are categorized in: Aerospace electric equipment and systems, Electrical and electronic equipment. These standards address safety of the respective battery chemistries for portable applications.

This part of the IEC 62485 applies to stationary secondary batteries and battery installations with a maximum voltage of DC 1 500 V (nominal) and describes the principal measures for protections against hazards generated from electricity, gas emission, and electrolyte.

The standard provides requirements on safety aspects associated with the erection, use, inspection, maintenance and disposal of cells and batteries for stationary applications and motive (other than on-road vehicle). Under development moving toward the committee draft voting stage. Includes safety requirements for lithium-ion cells for stationary and off-road motive applications and some battery requirements (evaluation of battery and battery management system [BMS] combination). Not a system standard, as it covers only battery and BMS interaction.

The standard specifies marking, designation, dimensions, tests and requirements for large format lithium-ion secondary single cells and batteries used in Industrial Applications including Stationary applications.

The standard covers specifies marking, designation, dimensions, tests and requirements for sealed nickel-metal hydride prismatic secondary single cells.

The standard provides electrical and mechanical requirements for liquid-immersed distribution and power transformers, and autotransformers and regulating transformers; single- and polyphase, with voltages of 601 V or higher in the highest voltage winding, are set forth. It is basis for the establishment of performance, and limited electrical and mechanical interchangeability requirements of equipment are described, and for assistance in the proper selection of such equipment.
