DOE-SPEC-3019-96
ATTENTION:
Supply the appropriate factors below. The temperature correction factor is obtained from IEEE 450. This number
ensures that the battery has sufficient capability at the coldest expected temperature. Do not use a correction
factor of less than 1.0. The design margin factor for general purpose is normally 1.10 to 1.15 to allow for future
system growth. The design margin factor for UPS application is normally 1.0 based on the assumption that the
UPS cannot be loaded by more than 100%. The normal aging factor for either application is 1.25, which is
consistent with retiring the battery when the battery can no longer supply above 80% of rated capacity. For pure
lead cells, aging factor is 1.0 since these cells maintain 100% (or better) capacity over their design life.

c. Aging factor of [1.25] [
ATTENTION:
Consult with the onsite structural engineer and DOE natural phenomena protection standards regarding seismic
requirements for the specific site. Revise or delete all of paragraph 3.2.7 as necessary.
********************
3.2.7
Seismic requirements.
3.2.7.1
Seismic qualifications.
ATTENTION:
Delete this paragraph if rack is not to be provided. Enter the seismic requirements for the battery site using the
appropriate building code.
********************
a. The battery [rack] [cabinet] furnished shall be certified for seismic
zone [  ,] such that the battery can perform its intended function
during and after a seismic event.
ATTENTION:
Include the following paragraph if equipment structures are intended to be completely self-supporting (except
cells).
********************
b. Design equipment and equipment supports to withstand and
maintain their structural integrity when exposed to seismic
loading indicated above. The equipment structures shall be
completely self supporting.
c. Support design shall not include friction for resisting the lateral
shear load.
d. The maximum stresses, under seismic loading combined with all
other load effects, shall be within the normal allowable material
working stress limits as set forth in the appropriate references
listed in this specification.
