ISO 12405

The international standard for testing lithium-ion battery packs and systems in electric vehicles, covering performance, reliability and abuse at pack level. Part 4 is the current performance specification.

UN 38.3

The United Nations test sequence that every lithium cell and battery must pass before it can be shipped: altitude, thermal cycling, vibration, shock, external short, impact or crush, overcharge and forced discharge. Air shipment of cells also caps state of charge at 30 %.

R100 Part II

The part of UN R100 that tests the battery system as a unit: vibration, thermal shock and cycling, mechanical shock and crash impact, fire resistance, external short circuit, overcharge and over-discharge protection, over-temperature protection and, from the 03 series, thermal propagation. Each test ends with a check that there is no fire, explosion, electrolyte leakage or loss of isolation.

Vibration and shock test

Shaking a cell or pack on a vibration table to a profile standing for years of road use, and striking it with defined mechanical shocks, then checking for loose connections, leaks and loss of isolation. UN 38.3, R100 and ISO 12405 each specify a profile.
