with the clauses below
5.12.0. Battery system general requirements
h) The battery voltage and capacity shall be such as to fulfil the
inverter input power requirements when the inverter is delivering
its rated output (VA), for an autonomy time of 4hours.
i) The battery system shall consist of two battery banks each with its
own battery cabinet. Each battery bank shall consist of valve
regulated, lead acid batteries (VLRA), with each battery rated at
12V. Batteries shall be connected in series to form a batteries string
one or more parallel battery strings shall be connected to form a
battery bank of a high DC voltage suitable for the UPS rating.
j) Each battery bank shall offer an autonomy of two hours at rated
UPS output giving a total of 4 hours for both battery banks. The
nominal ampere-hour (Ah) capacity of the battery system supplied
with the UPSs shall be for 4hr autonomy at full load The Nominal
Ampere-hour capacity of the battery shall be calculated in line
with a battery manufacturer’s approved battery sizing tool and
shall include all necessary allowances as specified in the datasheet,
required to compensate ageing effects that result in the progressive
loss of capacity
k) Each battery bank shall have a fused isolator for connecting the
battery bank to the UPS.
l) A cable shall be provided for connecting each battery bank to the
UPS. Cable shall be armoured and rated for 120% of maximum
battery bank current.
m) Estimated battery bank cable length is 25m for Masinga and 50m
for Kamburu
