STANDBY-BATTERY CALCULATION WORKSHEET

Use the procedure given below to determine the required standby battery capacity in Ampere-Hours (AH). NOTE: It is not totally accurate to merely multiply the combined standby current (in amperes) by the standby time (in hours) to obtain the battery capacity (in ampere-hours), since other factors (control-panel charging capabilities, temperature, battery condition, etc.) affect battery operation. The following calculations will yield the theoretical minimum required capacity.
