Common standards in the battery room include those from American Society of Testing Materials (ASTM) and Institute of Electrical and Electronic Engineers (IEEE). Model codes are standards developed by committees with the intent to be adopted by states and local jurisdictions.
This article does not cover maintenance free or computer room type batteries and battery cabinets in its Battery Room Design Requirements. The main keywords for this article are vented lead acid batteries, battery room safety requirements, Battery Room Ventilation, and unit substations electrical. Batteries can be hazardous to both personnel and equipment.
Vented lead acid batteries do not always require a separate, dedicated battery room when installed in medium voltage main substation buildings and unit substations, electrical equipment rooms, and control system rack rooms. However, the battery room and installation must comply with SES E14-S02, IEEE 484, NFPA 70, and OSHA 29 CFR.
The battery charger enclosure shall provide a degree of protection to at least IP2X or IPXXB classification in accordance with BS EN 60529. The battery charger shall be provided with a durable and easily visible alphanumeric identification label mounted on the exterior of the enclosure.
In layman's terms, a standard provides minimum requirements and/or instructions in agreement within the industry for common reference. Common standards in the battery room include those from American Society of Testing Materials (ASTM) and Institute of Electrical and Electronic Engineers (IEEE).
The charger shall be designed to prevent, as far as possible, transient voltages or spikes above 137.5V occurring on the DC output. The input and output of the charger shall be protected by suitable miniature circuit breakers (MCBs). Residual current devices (RCD) shall not be used.
