ONBOARD LITHIUM-ION TRACTION BATTERIES
FOREWORD
1) The International Electrotechnical Commission (IEC) is a worldwide organization for standardization comprising
all national electrotechnical committees (IEC National Committees). The object of IEC is to promote
international co-operation on all questions concerning standardization in the electrical and electronic fields. To
this end and in addition to other activities, IEC publishes International Standards, Technical Specifications,
Technical Reports, Publicly Available Specifications (PAS) and Guides (hereafter referred to as “IEC
Publication(s)”). Their preparation is entrusted to technical committees; any IEC National Committee interested
in the subject dealt with may participate in this preparatory work. International, governmental and non-
governmental organizations liaising with the IEC also participate in this preparation. IEC collaborates closely
with the International Organization for Standardization (ISO) in accordance with conditions determined by
agreement between the two organizations.
2) The formal decisions or agreements of IEC on technical matters express, as nearly as possible, an international
consensus of opinion on the relevant subjects since each technical committee has representation from all
interested IEC National Committees.
3) IEC Publications have the form of recommendations for international use and are accepted by IEC National
Committees in that sense. While all reasonable efforts are made to ensure that the technical content of IEC
Publications is accurate, IEC cannot be held responsible for the way in which they are used or for any
misinterpretation by any end user.
4) In order to promote international uniformity, IEC National Committees undertake to apply IEC Publications
transparently to the maximum extent possible in their national and regional publications. Any divergence
between any IEC Publication and the corresponding national or regional publication shall be clearly indicated in
the latter.
5) IEC itself does not provide any attestation of conformity. Independent certification bodies provide conformity
assessment services and, in some areas, access to IEC marks of conformity. IEC is not responsible for any
services carried out by independent certification bodies.
6) All users should ensure that they have the latest edition of this publication.
7) No liability shall attach to IEC or its directors, employees, servants or agents including individual experts and
members of its technical committees and IEC National Committees for any personal injury, property damage or
other damage of any nature whatsoever, whether direct or indirect, or for costs (including legal fees) and
expenses arising out of the publication, use of, or reliance upon, this IEC Publication or any other IEC
Publications.
8) Attention is drawn to the Normative references cited in this publication. Use of the referenced publications is
indispensable for the correct application of this publication.
9) Attention is drawn to the possibility that some of the elements of this IEC Publication may be the subject of
patent rights. IEC shall not be held responsible for identifying any or all such patent rights.
International Standard IEC 62928 has been prepared by IEC technical committee 9: Electrical
equipment and systems for railways.
The text of this standard is based on the following documents:
FDIS Report on voting
9/2317/FDIS 9/2329/RVD

INTRODUCTION
In the 90s the market started developing mainly portable lithium technology batteries. Existing
standards for lithium-ion batteries currently focus on small portable batteries:
• IEC 61960-3:2017, Secondary cells and batteries containing alkaline or other non-acid
electrolytes – Secondary lithium cells and batteries for portable applications – Part 3:
Prismatic and cylindrical lithium secondary cells and batteries made from them
• IEC 62133 (all parts): Secondary cells and batteries containing alkaline or other non-acid
electrolytes – Safety requirements for portable sealed secondary cells, and for batteries
made from them, for use in portable applications.
These above mentioned documents do not cover large cells and batteries for industrial and
railway applications, which are non-portable and weigh hundreds of kilograms.
TC 21 and SC 21A decided to start work on large capacity lithium cells and batteries:
• IEC 62619:2017, Secondary cells and batteries containing alkaline or other non-acid
electrolytes – Safety requirements for secondary lithium cells and batteries for use in
industrial applications,
• IEC 62620:2014, Secondary cells and batteries containing alkaline or other non-acid
electrolytes – Secondary lithium cells and batteries for use in industrial applications.
The documents are often generic and mention railway applications only as an example.
Therefore, this document is developed for specifying the requirements for railway traction
applications.
In addition, TC 9 has developed the following document:
• IEC 62864-1:2016, Railway applications – Rolling stock – Power supply with onboard
energy storage system – Part 1: Series hybrid system
IEC 62864-1:2016 specifies the general requirements for the onboard energy storage system
as a system level. The hierarchy of standards is shown in Figure 1 of IEC 62864-1:2016.
It is part of a series of standards, referring to each other. The hierarchy of the standards used
in the railway specific area related to IEC 62928 is as follows:

ONBOARD LITHIUM-ION TRACTION BATTERIES
1 Scope
This document applies to onboard lithium-ion traction batteries for railway applications.
This document specifies the design, operation parameters, safety recommendations, data
exchange, routine and type tests, as well as marking and designation.
Battery systems described in this document are used for the energy storage system (ESS) for
the traction power of railway vehicles such as hybrid vehicles as defined in IEC 62864-1:2016.
Auxiliary batteries to supply power only to the auxiliary equipment are excluded.
Subcomponents within the battery systems, e.g. battery management system (BMS) and
battery thermal management system (BTMS), are also covered in this document.
Power conversion equipment (e.g. chopper, converter, etc.), inductors, capacitors and
switchgear are excluded from the scope of this document.
General requirements for onboard ESS are described in IEC 62864-1:2016.
This document specifies the lithium-ion battery technology but does not prevent the use of
battery technologies other than lithium-ion technology for application as traction batteries.
A hybrid energy storage system, which uses two or more energy storage technologies
combined, e.g. a traction battery and double layer capacitors, is not covered in this document.
However, if different technologies of energy storage systems are used on the same railway
vehicle and managed independently, each independent energy storage system is covered by
its own document.
