The guidelines look into requirements coming out of the Batteries Directive 2006/66/EC and Regulation (EU) 1103/2010 on capacity marking of portable rechargeable batteries. In addition, this document also looks into other EU legislation such as the RoHS, WEEE, Low Voltage and Medical Equipment Directives.
Batteries containing more than 0,004 % lead shall be marked with the chemical symbol “Pb”, and batteries containing more than 0,002 % cadmium shall be marked with “Cd”. The manufacturer must affix the CE marking to each battery. The manufacturer must draw up an EU declaration of conformity for each battery model.
Batteries containing mercury, cadmium and lead are also required to be marked with the appropriate chemical symbol(s) under the crossed-out wheeled bin. Portable rechargeable batteries are required to be marked with their capacity from 30 May 2012 (Regulation (EU) 1103/2010).
Prismatic shapes: The symbol shall cover at least 3% of the area of the largest side of the battery, accumulator or battery pack, up to a maximum size of 5x5 cm. The symbol may be marked on any side. Cylindrical shapes: The symbol shall cover at least 1.5% of the battery surface area to a maximum of 5cm x 5cm.
Each category has specific requirements and regulations. CE Marking: Manufacturers will be required to affix the CE marking to batteries before placing them on the market or putting them into service, starting from August 18, 2024. The CE marking indicates compliance with EU safety, health, and environmental protection requirements.
The capacity label shall include both the numeral and its units. The capacity label is a marking which has to appear either on the battery label, the battery casing and/or the packaging. The capacity of portable rechargeable batteries shall be expressed in „milliampere-hour(s)‟ or „ampere-hour(s)‟, using the abbreviations mAh or Ah respectively.

Calculate Battery Capacity
Assessing battery capacity through discharge involves monitoring how long the battery can maintain a specific output before exhausting. If a battery can power a 10-watt device for 5 hours, its capacity in watt-hours is 10W * 5h = 50Wh. To find the capacity in Ah, divide by the voltage: 50Wh / 12V = 4.17Ah. Example 5: Capacity Loss Over Time. Batteries degrade over time and …
