## Discrepancy

DURING MAINTENANCE INSPECTION WHILE THE RAMP CONNECTED THE GPU THE EMERGENCY LIGHTS DRAINED.  THE SWITCH IN THE COCKPIT WAS OFF.  THE AIRCRAFT WAS REMOVED FROM SERVICE.  FOUND NR 3 & NR 4 EMERGENCY BATTERY TO BE DRAINED.  REMOVED AND REPLACED THE NR 3 & NR 4 BATTERY AND CHARGER ASSEMBLY.  THE OPERATIONAL CHECK WAS GOOD IAW 33-700-19.  THE AIRCRAFT WAS RETURNED TO SERVICE.
