Project Framework (report reference): IEC 60364-4-41Applicable Standard: IEEE 450

Multi-Asset / Multi-Point Equipment Schedule

Inspect multiple transformers, panels, rooms, motors, or RCDs in this module without overwriting previous assets. Each item receives a permanent QR Sticker UID preserved across annual audits.

Sticker UID: OC-BATT-B5E9

Standard Limits, Equations & Space Presets

IEEE Std 450 (Vented Lead-Acid) and IEEE Std 1188 (VRLA AGM/Gel) float voltage tolerances, cell-to-cell voltage spread, internal resistance trending against baseline, and discharge capacity thresholds.

Measured Inputs

Calculated / Evaluated Results

Acceptance: IEEE 450 (vented) and IEEE 1188 (VRLA). Cell float voltage within +/-2% of nominal, ohmic values trended against the commissioning baseline (>20% rise = investigate, >50% = replace), capacity >= 80% of rated with replacement planned below 80%.

Pending / Not tested — results stay neutral until valid measured values are entered.

  • Total String Float Voltage

    -

    Total string float voltage = Number of cells x Measured average cell float voltage.

    Pending
  • Float Voltage Deviation

    - %

    Not tested - enter the measured value. Acceptance: Cell float voltage within +/-2% of the manufacturer nominal value [IEEE 450 §8 / IEEE 1188 §6.2]

    Pending
  • Cell-to-Cell Voltage Spread

    - V

    Not tested - enter the measured value. Acceptance: Spread <= 0.05 V across the string on float [IEEE 1188 §6.2 field criterion]

    Pending
  • Internal Resistance Rise vs Baseline

    - %

    Not tested - <= 20% rise: cell condition acceptable. [IEEE 1188 §6.4 trending guidance]

    Pending
  • Capacity vs Rated

    - %

    Not tested - < 80% of rated capacity: replace the battery. [IEEE 450 §8.6]

    Pending
  • Average Cell Temperature

    - degC

    Not tested - enter the measured value. Acceptance: Reference 25 degC; roughly every 8 degC above halves service life [IEEE 450 / IEEE 1188 Annex]

    Pending
  • Specific Gravity (vented cells)

    -

    Not tested - enter the measured value. Acceptance: Fully charged vented cell typically >= 1.215, no cell more than 0.010 from the string average [IEEE 450 §8.5]

    Pending
