IEC 61982-4:2015规定了用于电动汽车（EV）推进的镍金属氢化物（Ni-MH）二次电池和模块安全性能的试验程序和验收标准，包括电池电动汽车（BEV）和混合动力电动汽车（HEV）。本标准旨在确保电动汽车正常运行期间，在预期用途和合理可预见的误用情况下，电池在电池系统中使用时的基本安全性能。本标准中电池的安全要求基于电池和模块在电池制造商规定的电压、电流和温度范围内正确用于电池组和系统的前提。 本标准不包括电池在运输和储存过程中的安全性评估。

IEC 61982-4:2015 specifies test procedures and acceptance criteria for safety performance of nickel-metal hydride (Ni-MH) secondary cells and modules used for the propulsion of electric vehicles (EV) including battery electric vehicles (BEV) and hybrid electric vehicles (HEV). This standard intends to secure the basic safety performance of the cell as used in a battery system under intended use and reasonably foreseeable misuse, during the normal operation of EV. The safety requirements of the cell in this standard are based on the premise that the cells and modules are properly used in a battery pack and system within the limit of voltage, current and temperature as specified by the cell manufacturer. The evaluation of the safety of batteries during transport and storage is not covered by this standard.
