Lithium battery & Caravan Standards Update:
Access the Full Standard for Caravans: Review the complete AS/NZS 3001.2:2022 document on the Standards Australia website HERE.
Summary
This updated standard introduces new safety guidelines, focusing on lithium battery certification and minimum requirements. Compliance is essential for caravan owners, manufacturers, and electricians working with these mobile systems.
Access the Full Standard for Lithium battery certification: For more details, see HERE.
Lithium Battery Requirements
Under section 5.4.12.3.1, lithium batteries in caravans must be certified to the IEC 62619 standard, ensuring they meet strict safety standards. Key concerns addressed by this certification include thermal runaway, overcharging, and short-circuiting. Batteries must also meet capacity and durability standards to withstand mobile conditions.
Battery Management System (BMS)
The standard requires lithium batteries to have a BMS, which safeguards against overcharging, over-discharging, short circuits, and overheating.
Electrical Protection
Section 5.4.12.3.3 mandates proper circuit protection, including fuses, circuit breakers, isolation switches, and grounding systems, to prevent electrical faults and hazards.
