Standards the test plan has to carry.

UN 38.3, IEC 62619, the EU Battery Regulation, and ASPICE traceability. Map spec clauses to required tests, surface gaps, then book the lab.

Context

Standards the test plan has to carry

A battery test plan is not one standard. Transport (UN 38.3), safety (IEC 62619), market access (EU 2023/1542) and process (ASPICE) sit in the same spec, often split across cell, module and pack.

Cevelar maps spec clauses onto these mandatory blocks, flags OEM deltas and gaps (samples, acceptance, DUT level) and outputs a plan the lab can book. The battery passport hangs off the regulation: about 90 fields, mandatory from 18 February 2027 for EV, LMT and industrial batteries above 2 kWh.

FAQ

Questions on the standards

What has to sit in the plan before the lab books.

Which standards does a battery test plan have to carry?

UN 38.3 for transport (T.1–T.8), IEC 62619 for industrial safety, EU 2023/1542 for market access and the battery passport, ASPICE for traceability. OEM specs often add harder profiles.

When UN 38.3, when IEC 62619?

UN 38.3 is the transport series. IEC 62619 covers safety of industrial batteries (including thermal and electrical abuse). In pack programmes they often sit side by side, on different DUT levels.

What does the EU Battery Regulation change in the test plan?

CE marking, CO₂ declaration, and from 18 February 2027 the digital battery passport for EV, LMT and industrial batteries above 2 kWh. Passport fields have to match tests and reports, not just the datasheet.

How does ASPICE relate to mandatory tests?

ASPICE requires bidirectional traceability. A required test without spec ID, clause and acceptance is an audit gap even if the lab already ran it.
