Batteries supply direct current (DC) power. Batteries contain cells. A cell is a device that uses chemical energy to produce electrical energy. There are two basic types of batteries:
  1. Wet Cell Storage Batteries
  2. Dry Cell Batteries
Wet Cell Storage Batteries Virda A cell creates a chemical reaction to produce electricity.

In a wet cell a chemical reaction which produces electricity takes place in a liquid. Figure shows a typical wet cell.

The acid electrolyte (sulfuric acid and water) reacts with the zinc bar. Positively charged zinc atoms, or ions, go into the electrolyte solution. Free negative electrons remain in the zinc bar, giving it a negative charge. Positive ions in the electrolyte (the liquid) collect around the copper bar, giving it a positive charge.

The chemical reaction creates (makes) an electrical potential across the electrodes. Although a voltage potential exists, there is still no electricity. Recall that electricity is the flow of electrons.

Without a circuit that connects the positive and negative terminals, there is no path for the electrons to flow through. In Figure, a wire connects the two terminals. Now there is a path, or circuit, for electrons to follow. The free electrons flow from the negatively charged zinc terminal through the wire to the positively charged copper terminal. This electron flow lights up the lamp in the circuit.



Wet Cell Storage Batteries Virda A battery is two or more electrical cells connected in series. In series means that the positive terminal in one cell is connected to the negative terminal in the next cell, and so on. Figure shows a storage battery. It is similar to the storage battery in a car. It supplies DC voltage when it is needed. When storage batteries are used a lot, they lose their ability to make electricity. When this happens, they must be recharged. Recharging battery allows the battery to supply electricity again. Many plants have a bank of storage batteries. These a . re kept continuously charged by a battery charger.
The battery charger is powered from the AC power supply. If there is a major power failure, the storage batteries will supply emergency DC power for the plant. Large storage batteries can produce a very high current. If you drop metal tools onto storage batteries it can cause a short circuit. This could cause a large spark (flash) and possibly an explosion.

Wet Cell Storage Batteries Virda Another danger with storage batteries is that they contain acid. Do not get close to them without protective clothing. This article applies to all stationary installations of storage batteries and the following standards are frequently referenced for the installation of stationary batteries:
