Batteries in the substations have two typical states: one is the check-discharge state, in which the batteries are discharged for 8 h at 0.1 C (Capacity) to determine whether the battery pack has certain reliability. The other is the floating charge state, in which the batteries are connected to the charger to maintain full power.

Lead-acid batteries are the most frequently used energy storage facilities for the provision of a backup supply of DC auxiliary systems in substations and power plants due to their long service life and high reliability.
There are two major types of battery banks used for substation applications; lead acid and nickel cadmium. The nickel cadmium battery banks are about twice the cost of lead acid for the same size bank. The major advantage that nickel cadmium batteries have over lead acid is their performance in poor climatic conditions.
It is not recommended to store a lead acid battery bank more than 6 months without charging. Battery banks purchased for new substation projects are typically delivered as soon as the control house is complete and ready for the bank to be installed. JEA has standardized on the battery charger used for all substation battery banks.
The following is the standard design of substation battery banks being purchased: The substation battery banks are sized and purchased by the substation engineering activity. Battery banks are purchased direct from pre-approved battery bank manufacturers.
Lead acid battery banks are purchased as close to their required need date as possible. It is not recommended to store a lead acid battery bank more than 6 months without charging.
