    The document discusses DC power systems which provide backup power during blackouts. It includes 3 key components: rechargeable batteries like lead acid and nickel cadmium, battery chargers to charge the batteries, and DC distribution boards. It then describes the working principles of lead acid batteries which use lead, lead dioxide, and sulfuric acid reactions and nickel cadmium batteries which use nickel oxide, cadmium, and potassium hydroxide reactions to store and release power. Standards and different types of batteries are also covered.

    CONTENTS

    • What is DC system ?
    • Components of DC System
    • Type of Batteries
    • Working Of Lead Acid Batteries

    DC SYSTEM 2
    DC SYSTEM ??

    • Direct Current Power Supply system providing Control


    Power during plant normal operation and feeding
    critical loads during Plant Black out condition.

    • Unlike Alternating Current, DC supply can be stored


    for a finite period, hence would be available during
    emergency operation / Plant disturbance condition.

    •In Case of Loss of material due to shedding , next layer of Pure


    Lead is converted into lead-oxide resulting in No loss of
    capacity, i.e Continuous regeneration of active material

    •No Ageing factor to be considered while sizing the battery

    No
