Foreword
ISO (the International Organization for Standardization) is a worldwide federation of national standards
bodies (ISO member bodies). The work of preparing International Standards is normally carried out
through ISO technical committees. Each member body interested in a subject for which a technical
committee has been established has the right to be represented on that committee. International
organizations, governmental and non-governmental, in liaison with ISO, also take part in the work.
ISO collaborates closely with the International Electrotechnical Commission (IEC) on all matters of
electrotechnical standardization.
The procedures used to develop this document and those intended for its further maintenance are
described in the ISO/IEC Directives, Part 1. In particular, the different approval criteria needed for the
different types of ISO documents should be noted. This document was drafted in accordance with the
editorial rules of the ISO/IEC Directives, Part 2 (see www .iso .org/ directives).
Attention is drawn to the possibility that some of the elements of this document may be the subject of
patent rights. ISO shall not be held responsible for identifying any or all such patent rights. Details of
any patent rights identified during the development of the document will be in the Introduction and/or
on the ISO list of patent declarations received (see www .iso .org/ patents).
Any trade name used in this document is information given for the convenience of users and does not
constitute an endorsement.
For an explanation of the voluntary nature of standards, the meaning of ISO specific terms and
expressions related to conformity assessment, as well as information about ISO's adherence to the
World Trade Organization (WTO) principles in the Technical Barriers to Trade (TBT), see www .iso .org/

4.2 There should be a BMS installed to control all installed lithium-ion batteries and maintain the
battery manufacturers specified safe operating limits.
NOTE A BMS can be internal or external to the battery.
4.3 It is recommended to only use cells that are constructed according to recognized international
standards, such as IEC 62619 and IEC 62620.
4.4 The battery system should be sized in accordance with the application and the battery
manufacturer’s defined operating limits, and with the appropriate C rating listed in the system
specifications.
4.5 Consideration should be given to providing power for critical systems (e.g., engine starting,
navigation lights, etc.) if a BMS shuts down the battery.
4.6 Consideration should be given to battery locations to keep the system operating temperature
within the manufacturer’s specified range.
NOTE A BMS can disconnect the battery at manufacturer-specific temperature limits.
4.7 Output control from charging sources should be within the battery manufacturer’s specified ranges.
4.8 If a shut-down condition is approaching, a BMS or system should notify the operator with a visual
and/or audible alarm, clearly perceptible from the main helm position, prior to disconnecting the battery
from the DC system.
4.9 In normal operation, different battery chemistries should not be connected in parallel or in series.
Combining/automated charging relays should not be used between systems using different chemistries.
