Self-contained units are suitable for small installations about 12
units. They have long shelf life and leakproof
construction, and are used watches and hearing aids.
Once the active chemicals are
exhausted, the cell must discarded.

The British Standard recommends that the full load should carried by
the emergency supply for least every months. Primary cells, the form Leclanche cells, are used extensively por-
table power sources for radios and torches and have emf 1. Figure 14. Larger
voltages are achieved connecting cells series. The batteries contained within these units should replaced about
every years, recommended the manufacturer.61

Definition
A primary cell cannot recharged. Once the active chemicals are
exhausted, the cell must discarded. the cell is
connected suitable electrical supply, electrical energy stored the
plates the cell chemical energy.35V, and can have very large
capacity small physical size. After testing, the
emergency system must carefully restored its normal operative state.
Primary cells
A primary cell cannot recharged. When the cell connected load,
the chemical energy converted electrical energy.5V. the cell con-
nected suitable electrical sup-
ply, electrical energy stored the
