TC21X working group 3 has been agree to implement following changes to EN 50342-1:2015/1:2018 – Deletion of high current discharge after water consumption test. This is not needed as a dedicated corrosion test is available in the document. – Limitation of the maximum discharge time in cranking performance test. Batteries with high power capability might be damaged if discharge until the cut off voltage of 6,0 V is reached. To prevent this the maximum discharge time of the second step of the cranking performance test has been limited to 180 s.
