Hello Chester,
You might want to check out Annex M of 62368-1 which has some guidance on secondary lithium batteries. I'm helping a customer with their evaluation at the moment. We've found conflicting info from the battery manufacturer and incomplete testing from the previous safety test lab used. Currently having "fun" checking the charge termination at high and low temperatures. All the best James James Pawson The EMC Problem Solver Unit 3 Compliance Ltd EMC Testing / Design for EMC / Problem Solving / Pre Compliance / Consultancy / Environmental & Vibration www.unit3compliance.co.uk <http://www.unit3compliance.co.uk/> // 07811 139957 2 Wellington Business Park, New Lane, Bradford, BD4 8AL Registered in England and Wales # 10574298 From: Chester Summers <csummers@CHARLESMACHINE.WORKS> Sent: 19 May 2020 19:39 To: EMC-PSTC@LISTSERV.IEEE.ORG Subject: [PSES] integrated or non-user serviceable Li-ion batteries Greetings, listmates- What safety standards should I consider when designing an integrated/built-in, or otherwise non-user serviceable Li-ion battery in a portable outdoor product? For a product typically covered by IEC 61010-1 is there a supplementary standard worth considering for the built-in battery part? IEC 61010-1 does not directly address non-replaceable rechargeable batteries. I'm thinking IEC 62133 is a given for the cells, and maybe apply it to the eventual integrated "pack" too if it makes sense. The final configuration containing the integrated Li-ion pack will at a minimum be developed & tested to applicable product family safety & EMC standards, all wrapped in a risk assessment. Is there a recommended industry guide that addresses the technician serviceability part?
