  • Abstract
    Ohmic measurements (Conductance, Impedance, Resistance) have been in use in telecommunications networks for battery state of health assessment since the 1980s. The technology hasa track record of effectiveness and is an efficient tool for as part of an overall battery maintenance program, providing cost and time savings and advance warning of battery degradation in key systems.
