    Defines marking, designation, dimensions, tests and requirements for vented nickel-cadmium prismatic secondary single cells.

    Scope - (Show below) - (Hide below)

    IEC60623 specifies marking, designation, dimensions, tests and requirements for vented nickel-cadmium prismatic secondary single cells. NOTE In this context, \'prismatic\' refers to cells having rectangular sides and base. When there exists an IEC standard specifying test conditions and requirements for cells used in special applications and which is in conflict with this document, the former takes precedence.
