BS EN 62660-3:2016

What is   BS EN 62660-3   - Lithium-ion cells   about?

BS EN 62660   is a series of European standards on secondary lithium-ion cells for the propulsion of electric road vehicles that discusses the best procedures and specifications required for increasing the safety of lithium-ion cells.   BS EN 62660-3   i s the third part of a series of documents on lithium-ion cells.   BS EN 62660-3   specifies test procedures and the acceptance criteria for the safety performance of secondary lithium-ion cells and cell blocks used for the propulsion of electric vehicles (EV) including battery electric vehicles (BEV) and hybrid electric vehicles (HEV).   BS EN 62660-3   intends to determine the basic safety performance of cells used in a battery pack and system under intended use, and reasonably foreseeable misuse or the incident, during the normal operation of the EV. The safety requirements of the cell in   BS EN 62660-3   are based on the premise that the cells are properly used in a battery pack and the system within the limits for voltage, current, and temperature as specified by the cell] manufacturer (cell operating region). The evaluation of th...
