Customer ServiceVented 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.
Lead acid batteries shall be located in rooms with outside air exchange or in well-ventilated rooms, arranged in a way that prevents the escape of fumes, gases, or electrolyte spray into other areas. Ventilation shall be provided to ensure diffusion of the gases from the battery and prevent the accumulation of an explosive mixture.
Ventilation of battery rooms or cabinets shall be in accordance with with National Regulation and/or IEC/EN 62485-2. Internal resistance can be important to the equipment design and operation. The manufacturer shall state the value of internal resistance for a new battery.. This item is covered by chapter 6.3 of IEC/EN 60896-21 and -22.
HEATING, VENTILATION AND AIR CONDITIONING (HVAC) - As discussed in previous units, temperature management is a particular concern for lead-acid batteries. The ideal temperature is between 20 °C to 25 °C, measured at the negative terminal post of designate pilot cells.
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.
Even if a company installs a NEBS-certified battery rack in a site, the building inspector can still require the rack to be certified to IBC or any other building code that city or state has adopted. Which seismic code or standard is the best fit?
