For electric bikes there is EN 15194 which addresses safety including for battery short circuits. I don’t see it listed in the EMCD OJ though, so I don’t know if it has widespread use.

It seems that these days more and more people are using these devices and fire safety is a growing concern. It seems my news feed has a new instance every few days. Some of these cases are very tragic outcomes, in that the owner brings these devices just inside the door to their apartment for overnight charging. Of course, if there is a lithium fire, it is rather violent and blocks the exit for the occupants. I am not very familiar with which safety standards are available in North America and Europe, and do they have requirements to address such concerns in the user documentation? I do know that some building owners are taking matters into their own hands and requiring these devices be charged outdoors; which may have varying success in mitigating building fires. In any case, many e-scooter owners are probably not very keen on leaving their property where it can be easily stolen.
