Design with the user in mind
.
Think about protecting and removing each element.
Remember that batteries added today may change in size later.
Plan the floor layout to accommodate a spare battery or test loads.
Battery chargers are increased in size to accommodate added loads.
.
Add disconnects and junctions at key locations.
Add extra breakers in the dc distribution or connectors for remote
a eres, es equpmen , an emporary a ery c argers.

((Ah x R)/ T) + L = Charger Amperes
Ah (Ampere hours) This is the measurement of a batterys storage capacity
the battery. We could also use the full value of the battery.

((Ah x R)/ T) + L = Charger Amperes
Lets give it a try..Assume 200AH wet vented lead acid batter with 150AHremoved recharge in 8 hours and a constant load of25Amps. Now that the ac has returned current needed
is to support the dc bus and recharge the battery is
150Ah x 1.15(eff) / 8H= 21.6Adc | +25(load)=46.6Adc
