Complete descriptions for testing vented lead
acid and VRLA batteries are beyond the
scope of this manual but are discussed in
detail in IEEE STD-450-2002 (or its latest
revision) and IEEE 1188-1996, respectively,
battery specific manuals, and other
professional society standards.
It is important to recognize that standby
batteries/cells are designed for emergency
standby operation and excessive testing or
cycling of a battery can materially shorten
the life of a battery.
