IEEE 2962-2025

This document provides recommended practices for system design, storage, installation, ventilation, instrumentation, operation, maintenance, capacity testing, and replacement of Li-ion batteries. While the principles covered in this document apply to all stationary standby and cycling applications, some of them may be excessive for smaller systems, such as those often found in residential installations. This document also provides guidance on compliance with safety standards; as well as best practices for worker safety during installation, maintenance, and testing.

Other standards relating to Li-ion batteries cover safety, qualification, characterization and evaluation. This document assists users by providing best practices for all phases of the life cycle of these batteries.
