20、 supply), in a static location (i.e. not generally intended to be moved from place to place) and incorporated into stationary equipment or installed in battery rooms for use in telecom, uninterruptible power supply (UPS), utility switching, emergency power or similar applications. The objective of t
21、his part of IEC 60896 is to specify the methods of test for all types and construction of valve regulated stationary lead acid cells and monobloc batteries used in standby power applications. This part of IEC 60896 does not apply to lead-acid cells and monobloc batteries used for vehicle engine star
22、ting applications (IEC 60095 series), solar photovoltaic energy systems (IEC 61427), or general purpose applications (IEC 61056 series). 2 Normative references The following referenced documents are indispensable for the application of this document.
