This recommended practice covers the sizing of nickel-cadmium batteries used for standby operation in stationary applications. Recommendations are provided for applications including, but not limited to, generating stations, substations, telecommunications, switchgear and control systems, compressor stations, emergency lighting, and uninterruptible power supplies. Guidance is provided for sizing for engine-starting applications. The following topics are beyond the scope of this document: Installation, maintenance, qualification, and testing procedures; Consideration of battery types other than nickel-cadmium; Renewable energy systems (e.g., wind turbines and photovoltaic systems) that may provide only partial or intermittent charging; Design of the dc system and sizing of the battery charger(s)

IEEE Recommended Practice for Sizing Nickel-Cadmium Batteries for Stationary Applications
The sizing of nickel-cadmium batteries used in standby operation for stationary applications is discussed in this recommended practice.
These standards have been replaced with a revised version of the standard, or by a compilation of the original active standard and all its existing amendments, corrigenda, and errata.
1115-2000
IEEE Recommended Practice for Sizing Nickel-Cadmium Batteries for Stationary Applications
The sizing of nickel-cadmium batteries used in full float operation for stationary applications is covered in this recommended practice.
1115a-2007
IEEE Recommended Practice for Sizing Nickel-Cadmium Batteries for Stationary Applications Amendment 1: Additional Discussion on Sizing Margins
This amendment provides additional guidance on sizing margins that may be applied when nickel-cadmium batteries are used in stationary applications involving an element of charge-discharge cycling.
These standards have been removed from active status through a ballot where the standard is made inactive as a consensus decision of a balloting group.
No Inactive-Withdrawn Standards
These standards are removed from active status through an administrative process for standards that have not undergone a revision process within 10 years.
No Inactive-Reserved Standards
