IEEE Standards Seminars...

Keeping Current on Large Storage Batteries

The Design, Installation, Operation, and Maintenance of
LARGE STORAGE BATTERIES FOR STATIONARY USE

April 24, 1991        Denver, CO

A Concentrated 1-Day IEEE Standards Seminar
(Register Early ...  Call 1-800-678-IEEE and enroll today!)

This specialized seminar is developed for utility personnel in plants or
substations; technical staff involved in battery design installation,
operation and maintenance; and personnel staff at standby design
installations. Based on IEEE's industry-recognized Recommended Practice for
Battery Systems, this one-day program provides the most accurate and current
information available on battery design and installation requirements, testing
techniques, battery and cell replacement, operational limits, and maintenance.
Upon completion, you'll know the detailed application criteria required to
effectively select, size, install, and maintain large storage batteries.

In this seminar, you'll learn about:
- The IEEE recommended practice for battery systems
- Battery location and environmental requirements
- Handling, storage, mounting, initial measurement, and start-up
- Float voltage, charging, maintenance inspections and timing, operational
  limits, variation with corrective actions, and their timing
- Acceptance, performance, service, and special testing
- Test data analysis, expected variations, and correlation with maintenance
  data
- Battery and cell replacement
- Test results, degradation, safety considerations, and timing
- Nuclear Class 1E Applications
- Qualification, specifications, interpretation requests of IEEE Std 450

Upon completion of this seminar, you will know:

- Application criteria for battery design, installation, maintenance, test
- How batteries operate
- What effects battery performance
- How to select the right battery for your application
- How to determine load requirements

WHO SHOULD ATTEND
