Batteries
IEEE (Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers) has developed several standards related to batteries, focusing on safety, performance, testing, and applications across different industries.
Popular IEEE Batteries Standards are:
IEEE 1188-2005 – Recommended Practice for Maintenance, Testing, and Replacement of Valve-Regulated Lead-Acid (VRLA) Batteries for Stationary Applications: This standard provides guidelines for the maintenance, testing, and replacement of VRLA batteries, often used in backup power systems.
IEEE 450-2020 – Recommended Practice for Maintenance, Testing, and Replacement of Vented Lead-Acid Batteries for Stationary Applications: This standard focuses on vented (flooded) lead-acid batteries, providing recommendations on their maintenance, testing, and replacement in stationary applications.
IEEE 1106-2015 – Recommended Practice for Installation, Maintenance, Testing, and Replacement of Vented Nickel-Cadmium Batteries for Stationary Applications: This standard offers guidance for vented nickel-cadmium (NiCd) batteries used in stationary applications, including installation, maintenance, testing, and replacement procedures.
IEEE 1679-2010 – Recommended Practice for the Characterization and Evaluation of Emerging Energy Storage Technologies in Stationary Applications: This standard provides a framework for evaluating emerging energy storage technologies, including batteries, in stationary applications.
IEEE 1725-2020 – Standard for Rechargeable Batteries for Mobile Telephones: This standard addresses the design, production, and testing of rechargeable batteries used in mobile phones, focusing on safety and performance.
IEEE 1625-2020 – Standard for Rechargeable Batteries for Portable Computing: This standard is similar to IEEE 1725 but applies to batteries used in portable computing devices, such as laptops and tablets.
IEEE 1657-2009 – Standard for the Installation, Maintenance, and Operation of Battery Systems: This standard provides guidelines for the safe installation, maintenance, and operation of battery systems, covering a broad range of applications.
IEEE 2400-2016 – Standard for Test Methods for the Characterization of Lithium-Ion Batteries for Stationary Applications: This standard specifies test methods for characterizing the performance and safety of lithium-ion batteries used in stationary applications.
