Valve Regulated Battery System (Sealed)

Annual/Semi-Annual Inspection

Attachment U300

The following is an outline of general items reviewed and evaluated by Unified Power (Contractor) during an inspection of the battery plant (Battery PM Services). Battery PM Services are performed during the Contracted Period Maintenance (CPM) at no extra charge to the client. No Battery PM Services will be performed on Holidays observed by Contractor. All inspections are designed to be performed during on-line operation. A review of all hardware and/or processes may not be applicable to all equipment models.

Clients canceling a Battery PM Service less than 24 hours prior to the scheduled appointment time may forfeit Battery PM Service under the Agreement.

Annual/Semi-Annual Maintenance Inspection Includes:

• Measure and record total system float voltage and individual battery voltages using a digital voltmeter.

• Batteries may be load tested with a portable tester applying 2.5 times its ampere hour rating for 15 seconds and record battery voltage at end of test period.

Batteries may also have the internal resistance, impedance or conductance recorded as well as load testing 10% during bi-annual inspections.

• Measure and record ambient temperature and all negative post temperatures.

• Measure and record all of the intercell/unit connector and battery cable contact resistances using a digital low resistance ohmmeter to verify that connection resistances are within the acceptable values determined for the particular battery, per manufacturers guidelines. Not applicable to units with spade terminals.

• Visually inspect conditions and appearance of the following:

• Main terminal connections, intercell/unit connectors, cables, and associated hardware.

• Cell/unit covers, containers, and post seals.

• Battery racks or cabinets and associated components and hardware.

• Mechanicals and Housekeeping Review:

• Spot check torque on battery rack frames, rails and braces.

• Retorque all battery connections found to be beyond acceptable contact resistance values. Connection resistances remaining above acceptable limits should be analyzed to determine the effect of the increased resistance on connection integrity, remedy as required.

• Perform cleaning of accessible surfaces and surrounding areas.

• Inspect and/or adjust the following:

• Float and equalize voltage settings.

• Operation of output current and voltage meters.

• General housekeeping of equipment.

• Review of Customer maintained records and safety documentation:

• Check for warning/hazard labels and operation information placards.
