EN 50342-1:2006/A1:2011
(Amendment)Lead-acid starter batteries - Part 1: General requirements and methods of test
General Information
- Abstract
This standard is applicable to lead-acid batteries with a nominal voltage of 12 V, used primarily as a power source for the starting of internal combustion engines, lighting and also for auxiliary equipment of internal combustion engine vehicles. These batteries are commonly called "starter batteries". Batteries with a nominal voltage of 6 V are also included within the scope of this standard. All referenced voltages have to be divided by two for 6 V batteries. This standard is applicable to batteries for the following purposes: - batteries for passenger cars, - batteries for commercial and industrial vehicles for normal use, - batteries for commercial and industrial vehicles for severe use. This standard is not applicable to batteries for other purposes, for example the starting of railcar internal combustion engines.

This amendment is due to Commission Regulation (EU) No 1103/2010 of 29 November 2010
establishing, pursuant to Directive 2006/66/EC of the European Parliament and of the Council, rules
as regards capacity labelling of portable secondary (rechargeable) and automotive batteries and
accumulators (OJ L 313, 30.11.2010, p. 3–7).
It aims to amend EN 50342-1:2006 in view of precise definitions of the values of accuracy for capacity
and cold cranking. For this purpose, the definition of the labelled capacity must be clearly identified,
and a method of sampling the batteries as well as the degree of compliance need to be defined more
precisely. Additionally, more precise phrasing for the definition of the needed labels is required.
Attention is drawn to the possibility that some of the element
