Description (English):

IEC 60095-4:2021 is applicable to lead-acid batteries used for starting, lighting and ignition of heavy trucks, commercial vehicles, busses and agricultural trucks. The object of this document is to specify global requirements of the main dimensions of starter batteries for Europe, North America and East Asia. This document comprises 12 types of "preferred types" of batteries. This document specifies dimensions of 4 types of batteries each for Europe (types A, B, C and D2), North America (types 4D, 8D, 31T, 31A) and East Asia (types E41, F51, G51, H52).

Abstract

Overview

IEC 60095-4:2021 (Edition 3.0) is the international standard that specifies the main dimensions and associated labelling/marking rules for lead‑acid starter batteries used for starting, lighting and ignition in heavy vehicles (heavy trucks, commercial vehicles, buses and agricultural trucks). The document defines a set of 12 “preferred types” of starter batteries - four for Europe (A, B, C, D2), four for North America (4D, 8D, 31T, 31A) and four for East Asia (E41, F51, G51, H52) - and provides global dimensional requirements to aid interchangeability and manufacturing consistency.

Key topics and technical requirements

Scope and types: Dimensional requirements for 12 preferred heavy‑vehicle battery types covering Europe, North America and East Asia.
Terminal dimensions and polarity marking: Positive terminal marking is mandatory (symbol “+” on the terminal or lid); negative marking (“–” or “NEG”) is optional. Symbols follow IEC 60417 graphical standards. Terminal geometry and taper dimensions are illustrated in the standard (see Figure 3).
Labelling and marking: Batteries must be marked in accordance with IEC 60095‑1. Polarity symbols may be indented or embossed to 0.4 mm ± 0.1 mm. Character heights and placement rules are specified.
Plastic material identification: Injection‑moulded components shall be marked per ISO 11469 and ISO 1043‑1 (e.g., >PP< or >PP/PE
