The charging method is another key procedure in any test specification. Most documents follow the approach that it shall be ensured that the lead–acid battery is completely charged after each single test. The goal is that the testing results are not influenced by an insufficient state-of-charge of the battery.
This regulatory guide describes methods and procedures that the staff of the U.S. Nuclear Regulatory Commission (NRC) considers acceptable for use in complying with the agency’s regulations with regard to the maintenance, testing, and replacement of vented lead-acid storage batteries in nuclear power plants.
Many organizations have established standards that address lead-acid battery safety, performance, testing, and maintenance. Standards are norms or requirements that establish a basis for the common understanding and judgment of materials, products, and processes.
Initial performance parameters are the key properties of a lead–acid starter battery. These are the total energy or capacity content and the ability to be discharged with a high current at low temperatures to start an internal combustion engine.
Standardization for lead–acid batteries for automotive applications is organized by different standardization bodies on different levels. Individual regions are using their own set of documents. The main documents of different regions are presented and the procedures to publish new documents are explained.
Annex E describes the visual inspection requirements. Annex F provides methods for measuring connection resistances. Annex G discusses alternative test and inspection programs. Annex H describes the effects of elevated temperature on lead-acid batteries. Annex I provides methodologies for conducting a modified performance test.
