3 Terminologies and Definitions
For the purposes of this document, the terminologies and definitions defined in GB/T 19596 and the following ones apply.
3.1
Battery electronics
Electronic device that collects or simultaneously monitors electric and thermal data of battery cells or modules and may contain electronics for cell balancing, if necessary.
Note: The battery electronics may include a cell controller. The balancing between battery cells may be controlled by the battery electronics or it may be controlled by the battery control unit (BCU).
3.2
Battery control unit; BCU
Electronic device that controls, manages, detects, or calculates electric and thermal parameters of the battery system and also provides communication between the battery system and other vehicle controllers.
3.3
Rated capacity
Discharge capacity of battery pack or system measured under specified conditions.
3.4
Battery pack
Unit that generally includes storage battery, battery management module (excluding BCU), battery container and corresponding accessories and is capable of obtaining external electric energy and outputting electric energy outwards.
3.5
Battery system
