CSA Preface
This is the second edition of CSA E62660-2, Secondary lithium-ion cells for the propulsion of electric road vehicles – Part 2: Reliability and abuse testing , which is an adoption, with Canadian deviations, of the identically titled IEC (International Electrotechnical Commission) Standard 62660-2 (second edition, 2018-12). It supersedes the previous edition, published in 2015 as CAN/CSA-E62660-2 (adopted IEC 62660-2:2010). It is one in a series of Standards issued by CSA Group under Part II of the Canadian Electrical Code.
This Standard is intended to be used in conjunction with CSA E62660-1, Secondary lithium-ion cells for the propulsion of electric road vehicles – Part 1: Performance testing (adopted IEC 62660-1:2018, with Canadian deviations). This Standard has been developed in compliance with Standards Council of Canada requirements for National Standards of Canada. It has been published as a National Standard of Canada by CSA Group.
Scope
This part of IEC 62660 specifies test procedures to observe the reliability and abuse behaviour of secondary lithium-ion cells and cell blocks used for propulsion of electric vehicles including battery electric vehicles (BEV) and hybrid electric vehicles (HEV).
NOTE 1 Secondary lithium-ion cells used for propulsion of plug-in hybrid electric vehicles (PHEV) can be tested by the procedure either for BEV application or HEV application, according to the battery system design, based on the agreement between the cell manufacturer and the customer. This document specifies the standard test procedures and conditions for basic characteristics of lithium-ion cells for use in propulsion of battery and hybrid electric vehicles. The tests are indispensable for obtaining essential data on reliability and abuse behaviour of lithium-ion cells for use in various designs of battery systems and battery packs. This document provides standard classification of description of test results to be used for the design of battery systems or battery packs.
NOTE 2 Cell blocks can be used as an alternative to cells according to the agreement between the cell manufacturer and the customer.
NOTE 3 The safety requirements of lithium-ion cells for electric vehicle application are defined in IEC 62660-3 [3].
