    Abstract - (Show below) - (Hide below)

    Introduces revised and additional tests for primary lithium batteries to assist manufacturers to overcome difficulties in implementing the previous standard.

    Scope - (Show below) - (Hide below)

    This British Standard specifies design, type approval and quality assurance requirements for all primary active lithium batteries for use in aircraft.

    NOTE 1. Typical examples of the chemical systems employed in the cells from which the batteries are constructed are given in table 1.

    NOTE 2. The manufacturer is encouraged to refer the purchaser to the information contained in annex C.
