Battery Capacity Testing

Battery Capacity Testing Battery capacity testing is a critical part of battery maintenance for UPS, telecom, utility, and industrial battery systems. Regular testing confirms that the battery can support the required load and helps identify weak cells before failure occurs.

All testing is performed in accordance with IEEE Standards 450, 1106, and 1188, as well as NERC PRC-005 requirements.

What Battery Capacity Testing Checks

  • Overall battery capacity
  • Ability to support connected load
  • Weak cells or failing connections
  • Battery string condition
  • Charger and system performance

Load Testing Services

Load testing is available from 1 to 8 hours depending on system requirements.

  • Inspect battery string before testing
  • Torque connections and measure resistance
  • Record cell impedance readings
  • Perform full system visual inspection
  • Discharge using load bank
  • Record hourly cell readings
  • Recharge system after test

Detailed Test Reports

After testing, a full electronic report is provided including:

  • Battery and charger information
  • Individual cell voltages
  • Discharge performance data
  • Problem identification
  • Recommended corrective actions

Temporary battery systems and chargers can be provided if required.
