• IR Scanning

• Remote Operations

Safety Improvements



Wet Cell Battery

• Longer life, increased reliability• Modifications to battery room will include

spill containment, positive ventilation, hydrogen detection

• Maintenance Requirements reduced due to integrated Battery Monitoring System. E.g. specific gravity checks

• Thermal Runaway significantly less of a concern than in VRLA batteries



ACEPS II Operational Test & Evaluation (OT&E)

ACTIVITIES OVERVIEW

•Electrical installation inspection.•Vendor equipment startups.•Subsystem performance testing (UPS, STS, Batteries, and etc.)•Documentation validation (Technical Instruction Book, Standard Operating Procedures, etc.).•Logistical support validation (on site sparing and depot support).•Overall System testing

– Degraded power mode testing.– Transfer testing.

29



ACEPS II Operational Test & Evaluation (OT&E)
