1)
Verifying that the parameters in-Table 4.8-3 meet the Category.B limits, 2)
Verifying there is no visible corrosion at either terminals or connectors,_or the connection resistance of these items is less than 150 x 10 4 ohms, and 3).
Verifying that the average electrolyte temperature of-six connecud cells is-above 60 F.

At least once per 60 months, during shutdown, by verifying that the batterv capacity is at. least 80% of the manufacturer's rating when subjected to a performance discharge test.
Once per 60-month interval, I
this performance discharge test may be performed in lieu of the battery service test required by Specification 4.8.2.1.2d.
f.
Annual performance discharge tests of battery capacity shall be given to any battery that shows signs of degradation or has reached 85% of the service life expected for the application.
Degradation is indicated when the battery capacity drops more than 10% of rated capacity from its average on previous performance tests, or is below 80% of the manufacturer's rating.
