This document specifies the safety requirements for secondary lithium cells and batteries used in electrical energy storage systems. The corresponding test methods are described. This document applies to secondary lithium cells and batteries used in electrical energy storage systems (hereinafter referred to as cells and batteries). The electrical energy storage system applications include, but are not limited to. a) Telecommunications; b) Central emergency lighting and alarm system; c) Stationary engine start-up; d) Photovoltaic system; e) Large-capacity energy storage. grid-connected/off-grid. The electrical energy storage systems listed above do not include all devices, and therefore devices not listed may also be included within the scope of this document. The batteries covered by this document typically have a rated energy of 100 kWh or higher. Safety requirements for batteries with a rated energy of 100 kWh or lower are specified in GB 40165.
