IS 17387 : 2020 General Safety and Performance Requirements of Battery Management Systems

ICS 29.120.10 ETD 52

1 SCOPE

This standard deals with safety, performance requirement and control parameters of Battery Management System (BMS) for safe working of battery electrical energy storage system and defines testing methods for safety, performance and control functioning of BMS for intended application. The control parameters defined in this standard are basic minimum requirements and system can include control parameters in addition to these.

1.1 This standard is applicable to stationary application with power generation system, such as photovoltaic power plant, wind turbine power plant and others.

1.2 The battery pack level battery management system shall conform to this standard. This standard is applicable to BMS connected to any number of battery system in series and parallel.

1.3 This standard does not address the safety requirements of any specific battery chemistry. Safety and functional requirements for BMS, based on battery chemistry has to be considered additionally.

1.4 This standard does not specify the controller logic, technology and communication protocol for the battery management system. The battery chemistry and technologies are out of scope of this standard. The applications other than the one covered in this standard are out of scope.
