Abstract :
The prevention of downtime losses due to premature and unexpected failure of stationary batteries to perform when called upon is of vital interest to those involved in managing and operating facilities which rely on fail safe battery performance. This paper discusses a proven and reliable method which will allow the user to understand the health of individual battery units and their interconnections in stationary battery systems while the units are on-line and to predict future performance
