Aircraft batteries - Part 1: General test requirements and performance levels

This part of the IEC 60952 series defines test procedures for the evaluation, comparison and qualification of batteries and states minimum performance and environmental levels for airworthiness. Where specific tests are defined with no pass/fail requirement (to establish performance capability), the manufacturer’s declared values, from qualification testing, will be used to establish minimum requirements for ongoing maintenance of approval for that design of battery. To provide representative examples, this standard utilises voltage and current values based upon an aircraft electrical system nominally rated at 28 V d.c. Additionally, the nominal values for cell voltage are assumed to be 1,2 V per cell for nickel-cadmium batteries and 2,0 V per cell for lead-acid batteries. The specific topics addressed in this part of IEC 60952 serve to establish acceptable quality standards required to qualify a battery as airworthy. In cases where the requirements for a specific application exceed those detailed in this standard, the purchaser will detail said requirements in the product specification and the method of establishing compliance. It is recognised that additional data may be required by other organisations (national standards bodies, AECMA, SAE etc.). The present standard can be used as a framework to devise tests for generation of the required data.

Batteries d'aéronefs - Partie 1: Exigences générales d'essais et niveaux de performances

La CEI 60952-1:2013 définit les méthodes d essai pour l'évaluation, la comparaison et la qualification des batteries et établit les niveaux de performances et d'environnement minimaux pour la navigabilité. Lorsque les essais spécifiques sont définis sans exigence d'acceptation et de refus (pour établir la capacité de performance), les valeurs déclarées du fabricant, à partir des essais de qualification, seront utilisées pour établir des exigences minimales concernant le maintien de l'agrément pour cette conception de batterie. Cette troisième édition annule et remplace la deuxième édition parue en 2004. Cette édition constitue une révision technique. Cette nouvelle édition inclut des exigences d'essai supplémentaires pour répondre aux besoins des autorités réglementaires de navigabilité en ce qui concerne la performance et la qualification de produit.

Letalske baterije - 1. del: Splošne zahteve za preskušanje in stopnje sposobnosti

Ta del skupine standardov IEC 60952 določa preskusne postopke za oceno, primerjavo in kvalifikacijo baterij ter določa minimalne stopnje sposobnosti in stopnje vplivov na okolje za plovnost. Kadar so določeni posebni preskusi brez zahteve glede ustreznosti/neustreznosti (za določitev zmogljivosti sposobnosti), se deklarirane vrednosti proizvajalca na podlagi kvalifikacijskega preskušanja uporabijo za določitev minimalnih zahtev za stalno vzdrževanje odobritve za to zasnovo baterije. Da bi standard zagotovil reprezentativne primere, uporablja vrednosti napetosti in toka, ki temeljijo na električnem sistemu letal z nazivno vrednostjo 28 V enosmernega toka. Poleg tega se predvideva, da so nazivne vrednosti za napetost celice 1,2 V na celico za nikelj-kadmijeve baterije in 2,0 V na celico za svinčeno-kislinske baterije. Posebne teme iz tega dela standarda IEC 60952 se uporabljajo za določitev sprejemljivih standardov kakovosti, potrebnih za kvalifikacijo baterije kot plovne. Kadar zahteve za posebno uporabo presegajo zahteve iz tega standarda, kupec podrobno opiše zadevne zahteve v specifikaciji za proizvod in metodo za ugotavljanje skladnosti. Priznava se, da lahko druge organizacije zahtevajo dodatne podatke (nacionalni organi za standarde, AECMA, SAE itd.). Ta standard se lahko uporablja kot okvir za pripravo preskusov za pridobivanje zahtevanih podatkov.

Part 1: General test requirements and performance levels
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 60952-1 has been prepared by IEC technical committee 21: Secondary cells and batteries. This third edition cancels and replaces the second edition published in 2004. This edition constitutes a technical revision.
This edition includes the following significant technical changes with respect to the previous edition: additional test requirements to meet the needs of the regulatory airworthiness authorities for both product performance and qualification. The text of this standard is based on the following documents: FDIS Report on voting 21/803/FDIS 21/814/RVD

60952-1 © IEC:2013 – 7 – INTRODUCTION The IEC 60952 series defines minimum environmental and performance requirements for establishing a qualification standard for airworthiness of lead-acid and nickel-cadmium aircraft batteries, which contain corrosive electrolytes. The series defines test procedures for determining battery performance. The electrical test results may be used to establish airworthiness in a particular application. For all tests, the manufacturer declares the minimum performance for each battery type. The requirements of IEC 60952 for aircraft batteries are divided into three parts:
– Part 1 defines test procedures for the evaluation, comparison and qualification of batteries and states minimum environmental performance levels for airworthiness.
– Part 2 defines the design requirements for aircraft batteries as well as their format (shape and size) and the range of aircraft interface connectors that are used. – Part 3 defines the product specification which is used to define specific requirements for an application and a declaration of design and performance (DDP), which details the performance of a battery format when tested to Part 1.
