When establishing design standards based on charging time, it is crucial to consider the safety and reliability of batteries. Insufficient charging time can result in incomplete charging or battery damage due to excessive charging current, leading to a chemical imbalance within the battery.
Starting the formation procedure, a pre-charging step (0.05 C, up to 20% to 30% State of Charge (SOC)) can be conducted that allows the release of gas from the battery cell at an earlier process stage. This step is used for lager battery cells and materials that create a high amount of gas from side reactions such as high-nickel cathodes.
Pre-charging results in higher cell quality due to less influence of gas bubbles between the electrodes for subsequent formation sequences and allows the formation of large-format cells. The downside is that two degassing and two formation steps are required.
A precharge circuit limits that inrush current, without limiting the operating current. Typical precharge circuit. In the typical precharge circuit, the precharge resistor is on the positive terminal of the battery, though it could just as easily be on the negative terminal.
Specifically, by integrating advanced algorithms such as adaptive control and predictive control, it is possible to accurately adjust the current changes during the charging process, ensuring that the current distribution and duration of each stage reach an optimized state, thereby improving charging efficiency and battery life.
The precharge relay needs to be rated for the full battery voltage, because, when the system is off, the full battery voltage appears across its contacts.

What is pre-charging and how does it work? | TAO Perf
When power is first applied to a capacitive load (such as an inverter or charger), a large inrush current is induced. This current creates an arc between the relay contacts, causing severe damage. For that reason capacitive loads need to be pre-charged with a controlled current. TAO EMS can do that for you as a standard feature.
