The International Electrotechnical Commission (IEC) published the Standard IEC 60086:2024 SER on July 13, 2016. This standard specifies requirements for primary cells and batteries, which are designed to be used in various applications ranging from portable electronics to industrial systems. It covers a wide array of cell types including alkaline, zinc-carbon, lithium, and others, ensuring they meet safety, performance, and environmental sustainability criteria.
The IEC 60086:2024 SER standard includes detailed guidelines for testing procedures, labeling requirements, and electrical characteristics necessary to ensure interoperability between different devices and systems that use primary batteries. It aims to provide a harmonized approach across the globe, facilitating international trade and promoting technological innovation.
Manufacturers of primary cells and batteries must adhere to this standard to certify their products as compliant with international safety and performance benchmarks. This ensures that consumers receive reliable and safe battery solutions for their electronic devices, contributing to both market confidence and user satisfaction.
