IEC 60623 specifies marking, designation, dimensions, tests and requirements for vented nickel-cadmium prismatic secondary single cells.
In this context, “prismatic” refers to cells having rectangular sides and base.
When there exists an IEC standard specifying test conditions and requirements for cells used in special applications and which is in conflict with this document, the former takes precedence.
