Abstract: In order to master the occurrence and development law of echelon use lithium-ion battery fire, different overcharge methods and overcharge rates were used to charge the lithium iron phosphate square battery(25 Ah, SOH=80% ) in echelon,and the combustion and explosion characteristics of the battery were investigated. The test results show that when the battery safety valve is opened and the overcharge is stopped, the battery may only discharge smoke and there will be no fire. When the battery is overcharged continuously after the safety valve is opened, the echelon use battery may burn and explode with the charging rate is more than 0.5 C. With the increase of overcharge rate, the opening of safety valve and the time to reach peak temperature and voltage will occur ahead of time.

Key words: lithium iron phosphate battery, echelon utility, overcharge, fire
