Author :
Meyer, Brian ; Elliott, John R.
Abstract :
Recent technical results are described from a study of a single-cell discharge/recharge test of lead acid batteries. The test has been developed to meet the telecommunication industry´s need for a means of accurately and efficiently determining if a battery string is still usable past its cells´ expected life. The testing procedure and the equipment used are described, results and field experience are discussed, and the benefits of the procedure are outlined.<>
