Introduction
Lucent Technologies offers a wide variety of engineering
services that range from complete telecommunications
installations to custom modifications of in-place equipment. For
more information on the type of services that best meet your
engineering needs, contact your Lucent Technologies account
executive.
This section of the manual is intended to provide guidance for
those customers who wish to completely or partially engineer
their battery plant. The detailed process of engineering a battery
plant is described as it progresses through four stages. This
process is essentially the same for the field modification of an
existing battery plant as it is for a new installation. The four
stages are:
•
characterizing the basic power requirements,
•
determining the power equipment that satisfies those needs,
•
determining the impact on the various building systems, and
•
preparing the order using the engineering drawings.
Calculations
The using system, also referred to as the Load Equipment,
determines many characteristics of the power equipment.
Service and maintenance strategies also affect the selection of
power equipment. This section describes, through the following
topics, the types of basic power specifications and how they may
be determined.
