Specifies requirements for the material, design, testing and performance of battery chargers for domestic or similar use for charging valve-regulated lead-acid batteries used in cyclic applications, e.g. golf buggies and prawning lights.

This Standard specifies requirements for battery chargers for domestic or similar use for charging valve-regulated lead-acid batteries used in cyclic applications, e.g. golf buggies and prawning lights. These chargers may be left connected to a battery for extended periods without damage to the battery.This Standard does not apply to battery chargers-(a) having an input rating greater than 2.5 kVA;(b) used for float charging;(c) embodied in appliances and not provided with an accessible outlet; and(d) intended to recharge a battery within 16 hrs.NOTES:1 AS 4044 specifies requirements for the charging of float-type stationary batteries.2 Battery chargers complying with this Standard may also be suitable for charging vented lead-acid batteries used for cyclic applications.3 Battery chargers complying with this Standard are not suitable for charging batteries for an extended time with a parallel connected load.4 Appendix A provides guidance on charger selection.5 AS 3696.14 specifies requirements for battery chargers supplied with wheelchairs.
