“Information required for the project inquiry
Specification for battery cell and battery module (shall include rated voltage capacity, discharge voltage, discharge current, discharge termination voltage, charging current, charging voltage, maximum charging current, maximum discharge current, maximum charging voltage, maximum operating temperature, product size, weight, etc.)
Inverter specification table (shall include rated input voltage current, output voltage current and duty cycle, operating temperature range, product size, weight, etc.)
ESS specification: rated input voltage current, output voltage current and power, operating temperature range, product size, weight, operating environment requirements, etc
Internal product photos or structural design drawings
Circuit diagram or system design diagram
“Samples and certification time
UL 9540 certification is usually 14-17 weeks (safety assessment for BMS features must be included)
Sample requirements (see for the information below. The project will be evaluated based on the application data)
ESS:7 or so (large ESS allows multiple tests for one sample due to sample cost, but requires a minimum of 1 battery system, 3 battery modules, a certain number of Fuse and relays)
Battery core: 6 (UL 1642 certificates) or 26
BMS management system: about 4
Relays: 2-3 (if any)

Post time:
Jun-28-2021On August 1, 2023, the British Government issued a notice that it plans to extend the recognition of the CE mark for most goods on the UK market indefinitely after December 2024. These updates apply to 18 regulations under the jurisdiction of the Department of Business and Trade (DBT). These are instructions including:Toys
Fireworks
Recreational boats and personal boats
Simple pressure vessel electromagnetic compatibility
Non-automatic weighing apparatus
Measuring instrument
Measuring container bottle
Elevator
Equipment for Potentially explosive Environments (ATEX)
Radio equipment
Pressure facility
Personal Protective Equipment
Gas appliance
Machinery
Equipment for outdoor use
Aerosol
Low-voltage electrical equipment
However, there are different rules for medical devices, construction products, ropeways, movable pressure facility, unmanned aerial systems, railway products, marine equipment and ecological design, and the relevant departments in these areas have or will inform the planning in due course.
For battery products, it means that you do not need to consider the requirements of UKCA in the future, and you can apply for CE certification directly.
