Why is there a need for preventative maintenance?

Batteries are the lifeblood of your UPS and telecommunication systems and the power source for your standby generators and may provide backup power for your switchgear. Many of the conditions that cause battery failure are controllable with the proper stationary battery maintenance program. Common conditions of battery failure include excessive cycling, improper charging, lack of temperature control, installation and manufacturing problems.
