Abstract :
Published as work in progress, this document presents pertinent information regarding recommended design for and practices concerning the location, mounting, preparation and installation of large stationary lead storage batteries, including special requirements for nuclear power generating stations. This document was affirmatively balloted by Station Design Subcommittee of Power Genetation Committee, SC-4 working group of NPEC and other representatives of the industry for presentation as "work in progress". As a result of this ballot, several concerns in the area of qualification became evident. After consideration of these concerns and additionat comments from the industry, this document was revised and will be submitted to IEEE Standards as a recommended practice.
