The Surveillance Faquirement for denonstrating the OPERABILITY of the Stattun batteries are based on the recorrendations of Regulatory Guioe 1.129,
'Haintenance Testing snd Replacem6nt of Large Lead Storage Batteries for Nuclear Power Plants," February 1978, and 1EEE Std 450 1987, '!EEE Pecommended l
Practice for Maintenance, Testing, and Replacement of Large Lerd Storage Batteries for Generating Stations and Substettons.*
Ver;fying average electrolyte temperature above the minimum for which the battery was sized, total battery terminal voltage onfloat charge, connection resistance values and the performance of battery service and discharge tests ensures the effectiveness of the charging system, the ability to handle high discharge rates and compares the battery capacity at that Line with the rated capacity.
Table 4.8-2 specifies the normal limits for each designated pilot cell and each connected cell for electrolyte level, float voltage and specific gravity. The limits for the designated pilot cells float voltage and specific gravity, greater than 2.13 volts and.015 below the manufactuser's full charge specific gravity or a battery charger current that had stabilised at a low value, is characteristic of a charged cell with adequate capacity. The normal limits for each connected cell for f1nat voltage and specific gravity, greater than 2.13 volte and not more than.020 below the manufacturer's full charge specific gravity with an average specific gravity of all the connected cells not more than.010 below the manufacturer's full charge specific gravity, ensures the OPERABILITY and capability of the btttery.
Operation with a battery cell's parameter outside the normal limit but within the allowable vslue specified in Table 4.8-2 is permit ted for up to 7 days. During this 7 day periods (1) the allowable values for electralyte level ensures no physical damage to the plates with an adequate electrun transfer capability; (2) the allowable value for the average specific gravity of all the cells, not more than.020 below the manufacturer's recommended full charge specific graulty, ensures that the decrease in rating will be less than the safety margin provided in sisings (3) the allowable value for an indi-vidual-cell's specific gravity, ensures that an individual cell'a specific gravity vill not be more than.040 below the manufacturer's full charge specific gravity and that the overall capability of the battery will be maintained within an acceptable 'imit, and (4) the allowable value for an indiv4 dual cell's float voltage, greater than 2.07 volta, ensures the battery's capability to perform its design function.
