本推荐规程规定了固定备用电池（主要是铅酸和镍镉备用电池）和相关系统的安装人员和维护人员的推荐知识范围，以影响电池、人员安全和任何相关系统的可靠性。直流系统（包括任何连接的交流逆变器）的设计和直流电池充电器的尺寸超出了本推荐规程的范围。虽然本规程涵盖的一些电池信息适用于小型离网循环应用，但与大型储能循环应用相关的信息有限。

This recommended practice defi nes the areas of recommended knowledge for installers and maintainers of stationary standby batteries (primarily lead-acid and Ni-Cd standby batteries) and related systems to the extent that they aff ect the battery, personnel safety and reliability of any related systems. Designing the dc system (including any connected ac inverters) and sizing of the dc battery charger(s) are beyond the scope of this recommended practice. While some of the battery information covered by this practice applies to small off - grid cycling applications, information relative to large energy storage cycling applications is limited.
