Manufacture of batteries and accumulators
What this code covers
Use this class for manufacture of batteries and accumulators when the main activity includes Manufacture of primary cells and primary batteries and Cells containing manganese dioxide, mercuric dioxide, silver oxide, etc.. Check exclusions and nearby codes before applying it to a mixed activity.
Official NACE Rev. 2.1 labels and explanatory notes are imported from the source dataset. Plain-language explanations are shown separately so readers can compare interpretation with the source text.
No child codes; this is a class-level code.
- This class includes the manufacture of non-rechargeable and rechargeable batteries.
- manufacture of primary cells and primary batteries
- cells containing manganese dioxide, mercuric dioxide, silver oxide, etc.
- manufacture of electric accumulators, including parts thereof:
- manufacture of charging facilities for cars, see 27.90
- installation of electric storage systems for buildings, see 43.21
- Compare with 27.90, 43.21, 27.2 when the main activity overlaps another code.
- Check national equivalent caveats before using this code for local registration or filing workflows.
- If the main revenue activity appears in an exclusion, compare the alternative code before deciding.
