FOREWORD
This document (EN 50342-1:2006/A1:2011
The following dates are fixed:
- latest date by which the amendment has to be implemented at national level by publication of an identical national standard or by endorsement (dop) 2012-10-17
- latest date by which the national standards conflicting with the amendment have to be withdrawn (dow) 2014-10-17
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 elements of this document may be the subject of patent rights. CENELEC [and/or CEN] shall not be held responsible for identifying any or all such patent rights.
