This document addresses the requirements for labelling across all PV and battery systems as required by the relevant Australian Standards: • AS/NZS 3000 • AS/NZS 4777.1 • AS/NZS 5033 • AS/NZS 5139 This document will break the requirements into: • Equipment marking requirements • Application of labelling 1.2 References
Battery rooms shall be dry, well lit, well ventilated and protected against the ingress of dust and foreign matter. c. Battery rooms with different types of electrolyte shall not be installed in the same room.
Common standards in the battery room include those from American Society of Testing Materials (ASTM) and Institute of Electrical and Electronic Engineers (IEEE). Model codes are standards developed by committees with the intent to be adopted by states and local jurisdictions.
All electrical installations in battery rooms shall be issued with a Certificate of Compliance (CoC) by a registered master installation electrician. 4. Fan motors which are not placed in a hydrogen environment or directly exposed to the flow of hydrogen do not have to comply with the aforementioned statement. 5.
The capacity label shall include both the numeral and its units. The capacity label is a marking which has to appear either on the battery label, the battery casing and/or the packaging. The capacity of portable rechargeable batteries shall be expressed in „milliampere-hour(s)‟ or „ampere-hour(s)‟, using the abbreviations mAh or Ah respectively.
The guidelines look into requirements coming out of the Batteries Directive 2006/66/EC and Regulation (EU) 1103/2010 on capacity marking of portable rechargeable batteries. In addition, this document also looks into other EU legislation such as the RoHS, WEEE, Low Voltage and Medical Equipment Directives.
Until EU harmonised legislation for portable non-rechargeable batteries and accumulators is in place, Member States are not obliged to introduce or require the use of capacity labels, and battery producers are not obliged to place capacity labels on them, unless required under national law.
