Select ECV Sheet
? Select which sheet from the Excel file to use for calculations. Format: WorkbookName-SheetName

Example: BatteryData-12VSheet
Load
Watts Type
? Where to find KVA/KW value:
This is typically listed on the equipment nameplate.

Conversion Formulas:
KW = Watts/1000
KVA = VA/1000

Watts Type Explanation:
- Watts Per Battery: Standard calculation using total battery watts
- Watts Per Cell: Calculation based on individual cell watts
Power Factor (PF)
Inverter Efficiency (EFF)
? Where to find EF value:
This is typically listed in UPS/inverter specifications.

Standard values:
Single Phase Inverter: 85%
Three Phase Inverter: 90%

Where to find PF value:
This may be listed on equipment nameplates or specifications.

Standard values:
Single Phase Load: 0.8
Three Phase Load: 0.95
Aging Factor (AF)
Design Margin (DM)
Temperature Coefficient (TC)
? Aging Factor (AF)
Factor to account for battery capacity degradation over time.

Design Margin (DM)
Safety margin for design uncertainties.

Temperature Coefficient (TC)
Factor to account for temperature effects on battery performance.
Batteries/String
Max Strings Limits
? MaxStrings:
Mention the number of battery strings you want in the battery calculation.

What is a Battery String?
A battery string is a set of batteries connected in series to achieve the required voltage.

Where to find this value:
Check your UPS/inverter manual or specifications.
Min - Max Battery Size
? Minimum and maximum battery capacity in Amp-hours (Ah) to consider in the calculation.
Backup Time (Minutes)
? Standard backup times:
- 15 minutes: Basic computer backup
- 30 minutes: Modern computer/office equipment
- 60 minutes: Critical servers
- 120 minutes: Sump pumps, medical equipment
- 240 minutes: Whole house backup
