24、ernational Standard establishes minimum requirements for the functioning and performance of battery charge controllers (BCC) used with lead acid batteries in terrestrial photovoltaic (PV) systems. The main aims are to ensure BCC reliability and to maximise the life of the battery. This standard shal
25、l be used in conjunction with IEC 62093, which describes test and requirements for intended installation application. In addition to the battery charge control functions, this Standard addresses the following battery charge control features: photovoltaic generator charging of a battery, load control
26、, protection functions, interface functions. This standard does not cover MPPT performance, but it is applicable to BCC units that have this feature. This standard defines functional and performance requirements for battery charge controllers and provides tests to determine the functioning and perfo
27、rmance characteristics of charge controllers. It is considered that IEC 62093 is used to determine the construction requirements for the intended installation which includes but is not limited to aspects such as the enclosure, physical connection sturdiness and safety. This standard was written for
28、lead acid battery applications. It is not limited in terms of the BCC capacity to which it may be applied, however, the requirements for test equipment when applied to BCC with high voltage or current, for example, greater than 120 V or 100 A, may be difficult to achieve. These approaches may be app
29、licable to other power sources and other battery technologies like Ni-Cd batteries by using the corresponding values of cell voltages. 2 Normative references The following referenced documents are indispensable for the application of this document.

31、and definitions For the purposes of this document, the terms and definitions given in IEC 61836 apply as well as the following. 3.1 battery charge controller (BCC) an electronic device/s that controls the charging and discharging of the battery in a photovoltaic energy system. The charge control fun
32、ction may be included as a subsystem within another product. BS EN 62509:201162509 IEC:2010 7 3.2 bulk charge initial charging stage aimed at restoring the battery charge as fast as possible, in which all the available charging current from the PV generator, or the maximum current rating of the BCC,
33、 is delivered to the battery. NOTE Sometimes referred to as boost charge. 3.3 bulk voltage threshold voltage used by the BCC as a control parameter to change charging mode from bulk charge to the next charging stage NOTE Sometimes referred to as boost voltage. 3.4 bulk charge delay time the amount o
34、f time for which the bulk voltage is to be maintained before the change from the bulk charge stage to the next charging stage is made 3.5 equalise current a constant current applied to the battery during equalise charge; normally determined by battery manufacturer recommendations 3.6 equalise charge
35、 a relatively high voltage charging stage that is maintained for a defined time. Charge control can be achieved by constant voltage or constant current regulation or a combination of both. Equalise charge is intended to bring all cells to the same state of charge and remove electrolyte stratificatio
36、n in flooded cells by causing them to produce gas and stir the electrolyte. 3.7 equalise voltage the voltage that the battery is allowed to reach during equalisation. This voltage is set above the gassing point for flooded batteries and below the maximum allowable voltage that the battery can withst
37、and without damage. 3.8 equalise time time that the equalise voltage is maintained from the moment that the battery has reached the equalise voltage, to the moment when the equalise charge is terminated to enter the next charging stage 3.9 float charge a constant voltage charging stage in which the
38、battery is maintained at a voltage below the gassing point to complete the charging cycle and compensate for battery self discharge 3.10 float voltage the minimum constant voltage necessary to offset the internal losses of the battery 3.11 load disconnect point condition (usually battery voltage) at
39、 which the load terminals of the charge controller are switched off to prevent the battery from over discharging, or at which a control signal or alarm BS EN 62509:2011 8 62509 IEC:2010 is triggered to signal a low battery state of charge. When the condition is a battery voltage, the abbreviation LV
40、D (Low Voltage Disconnect) is usually used. 3.12 load reconnect point condition (usually battery voltage) at which the load terminals of the charge controller are switched back on to allow the battery to supply the load, or at which a control signal or alarm is switched off to signal a battery state
41、 of charge that warrants the supply of the load. When the condition is a battery voltage, the abbreviation LVR (Low Voltage Reconnect) is usually used. 3.13 self-adaptive an algorithm that modifies the charge controller set-points based on state of charge calculations, battery state of charge histor
42、y, etc., or a combination of these parameters 3.14 temperature compensation for end of charge voltage set-points a temperature dependent coefficient applied to the end of charge voltage set-points when the temperature of the battery differs from the reference temperature (usually 25 C). In addition
43、to the temperature coefficient, temperature compensation normally has minimum and maximum limits that should be adhered to (i.e. voltage set-points should be constrained within a range). 4 Functionality and performance requirements of a PV BCC 4.1 General This Clause describes the performance and fu
44、nctionality requirements for PV battery charge controllers (BCC). These requirements are divided in 5 main categories: Battery lifetime protection. Efficiency. User interface. Fail safe functions. Marking and documentation. The provisions in this standard are not intended to preclude or rule out inn
45、ovative control techniques aimed at providing effective battery charging. These however shall be verifiable by testing. 4.2 Applicability of requirements Required provisions ensure reliable operation and essential protection functions, and are generally easily achievable on even inexpensive BCCs int
46、ended for small installations (e.g. single module installations at extra low voltage). Recommended provisions ensure more effective battery charging, better efficiencies, longer battery lifetime and additional user interface functions. They are intended to provide and/or facilitate more advanced bat
47、tery charging and load management. BS EN 62509:201162509 IEC:2010 9 4.3 Battery lifetime protection requirements 4.3.1 Prevent leakage current from battery to PV generator The BCC shall limit leakage current flowing from the battery to the PV generator in order to prevent battery discharging at nigh
48、t. The allowable reverse current on the PV side shall be 0,1 % of the BCC rated input current when the battery voltage is equal to the rated voltage. Compliance shall be verified by test according to 5.2.1. 4.3.2 Basic battery charging functions 4.3.2.1 General The BCC shall provide appropriate char
49、ging set-points and load disconnect set-points for the specific battery technology or technologies it is intended to be used for. 4.3.2.2 Protect battery from over-charge The BCC shall cut out or regulate the charging current to avoid over-charging of the battery according to battery manufacturer recommended end of charge set-point. Compliance shall be determined by test according to 5.2.2. 4.3.2.3 Protect battery from over-discharge The BCC shall have a provision to prevent the
