terminals at all times without even momentary interruption.
The battery shall be sized to meet emergency load duty cycle requirements for at
least four (4) hours. However, the minimum rating of battery bank shall be 600AH.
While estimating battery capacities, aging margin as per relevant standard,
temperature correction factor as per manufacturers standard and a design margin of
10% shall be considered. For the purpose of estimating battery capacities, the
maximum and minimum temperatures shall be considered as 50C and 5C respectively.
All momentary loads shall be treated as one-minute loads. The procedure for
estimating battery capacities shall be as per guidelines stipulated in IEEE Std.
1115-1992. The battery will be sized such that the voltage at any time during the
duty cycle shall not be less than 1 Volt per cell.

selection. On failure of station A.C. supply both float and float-cum-boost
chargers will go out of service and battery will take over to supply emergency
loads without any interruption. Interlock shall be provided to ensure that the
battery can be taken to boost mode only if the float charger is healthy and
running. Interlock defeat arrangement shall also be provided for initial charging
of battery. SPECIFIC REQUIREMENTS Layout The battery & battery charger will be

The conductor (solid or stranded) is forced against the contact area of the 2.4 x
0.8 mm or 1.6 x 0.8 mm connection pin by means of a tin-coated bronze clip, which
maintains a constant pressure. In the Maxitermi-point method, 2.4 x 0.8 mm pins is
used without exception. The conductor is "shot" onto the pin together with the
clip. The resulting friction causes both the wire and the contact area of the pin
to be cleaned and any oxide layers to be penetrated. Apart from this the wire and
the clip are deformed in such a way that a gas-tight connection with very good
electrical and mechanical properties is established. A special manually or
pneumatically driven gun is required. Up to 3 adjacent connections can be "shot"
onto one pin. In most cases only one clip at the base of the pin is attached. The
sections above usually remain vacant. Any part of a connection pin may be reused
several times after removal of the existing clip connection. Contact areas below
existing connections that have become vacant can be reused by pushing the
connections above the vacant space downwards, so that the new connection can be
"shot" on above the top connection. The single jumper wires need not be specially
prepared as the end insulation is stripped within the tool. This connection method
requires special insulation of the wires. The diameter of solid conductors is 0.8
mm the cross-section of stranded conductors 0.5 Sq.mm.
