1 Scope
This part of GB/T 8897 is intended to standardize primary batteries with respect to electrochemical systems, dimensions, nomenclature, terminal configurations, markings, test methods, typical performance, safety and environmental aspects. As a primary battery classification tool, electrochemical systems are also standardized with respect to system letter, electrodes, electrolyte, nominal and maximum open circuit voltage.
This part is applicable to the batteries that meet the requirements of Annex A to ensure that batteries from different manufacturers are interchangeable according to standard form, fit and function.
2 Normative References
The following referenced documents are indispensable for the application of this document. For dated references, only the edition cited applies. For undated references, the latest edition of the referenced document (including any amendments) applies.

3 Terms and Definitions
For the purposes of this document, the following terms and definitions apply.
3.1
application test
simulation of the actual use of a battery in a specific application
3.2
battery
one or more cells electrically connected and fitted in a case, with terminals, markings and protective devices etc., as necessary for use
Note: IEC 60050-482:2004, definition 482-01-04, modified]
3.3
button (cell or battery)
small round cell or battery where the overall height is less than the diameter
Note: In English, the term “button (cell or battery)” is only used for non-lithium batteries while the term “coin (cell or battery)” is used for lithium batteries only. In languages other than English, the terms “coin” and “button” are often used interchangeably, regardless of the electrochemical system.
