why Batteries & Battery chargers are used in substation?
what is the different between UPS & battery charger?

Answer Posted / amit khamesra

In lieu of a more reliable power supply source, DC supply
is used in place of normal AC supply. If there is a
blackout, AC power will not be available n the electrical
protection devices will not operate. To avoid any such
situation, DC supply is used. DC supply is provided by
batteries and charger is used to keep the batteries healthy
by trickle charging the batteries in Float / Boost mode as
required. UPS is an uninteruptable power supply which uses
converter inverter set. AC input is first converted to DC
and again converted to AC. The battery bank installed for
UPS is connected in between converter inverter set so that
if AC supply to converter fails, battery comes on load and
supplies DC to inverter for maintaining the AC power supply
at output end.
