Performance assessment of flooded lead acid cells in telephone central office power plants/spl times/focus on round cells

The paper presents the correlation of the measured conductance data versus the tested capacity of approximately 300 cells. This paper also discusses two case studies that illustrate specific examples of power plant evaluations using various methods including capacity testing, infrared thermography and conductance measurements. Finally, some conclusions are drawn on the usefulness and accuracy of using conductance measurements alone to assist in the evaluation of battery plants with the round cell.<
