Why does the battery drain on a 1991 Saab 16 valve turbo if not operated for 2 or 3 days?

We have a 1998 Saab 900. It is not driven often. The battery drains if it has not been driven for 6 days. I took the car to a car electrician. He checked the obvious spots and told me the car should be using between 15-50 mA energy max, when the motor is not running. My car is using 60 mA. According to the electrician, this is about 40% higher than what it should do.
The electrician has ordered the schematic wiring instructions to check where the energy is being used. The battery and the alternator are new.
I have typed in 'battery drain Saab 900' in googe. Quite a number of hits. Have not yet found the solution though. It seems this is a common occurance for the Saab 900.

Yes, it sure will. The alternator's purpose is to replenish the battery.
