The electrical unit used to indicate the capacity of a battery is the Amp-hour. This is a theroetical statement of how many amps the battery is capable of producing in one hour.

This could indicate a low state of charge for the battery.

Function of a Battery Equalizer?

A battery Equalizer is a device in a battery bank that performs battery equilibration. Typically, the individual cells in a battery have somewhat different capacities and may be at different levels of SOC (state of charge). Without redistribution, discharging must stop when the cell with the lowest capacity is empty (even though other cells are still not empty); this limits the energy that can be taken from and returned to the battery. Without equalizing, the cell of smallest capacity is a "weak point", it can be easily overcharged or over-discharged while cells with higher capacity undergo only partial cycle. For the higher capacity cells to undergo full charge/discharge cycle of the largest amplitude, Equalizer should "protect" the weaker cells; so that in an equalized battery, the cell with the largest capacity can be filled without overcharging any other (i. e. weaker, smaller) cell, and it can be emptied without over-discharging any other cell. Battery equalizing is done by transferring energy from or to individual cells, until the SOC of the cell with the lowest capacity is equal to the battery's SOC. The process maximizes the battery bank capacity to make all of its energy available for use and increase the batteries lifetime.


Why 1996 GMC sierra 2500 have 2 battery?

Chevrolet and GMC trucks with diesel motors have a lot of electrical draw; glowplugs and such; that the standard battery is insufficient. Rather than develop a speciality monster battery, GM chose to install two batteries in parallel - doubling the capacity. They did the same in the diesel Oldsmobiles. People with gas motor trucks who want extra reserve capacity truck, like for a winch, killer stereo or just bragging rights; will install the extra battery tray, battery, cables, etc. I can see that emergency and/or service vehicles might have a second battery option. I personally worked on a GMC Jimmy that was a U.S.Army truck that had been surplused to my state's Department of Natural Resources. It have a 24 volt charging/starting system - as do all Military equipment I have seen - and it had two batteries in series to produce the 24volt storage.


How do you fix ford 3930 tractor electrical system will not charge alt.check good?

You would start by diagnosing the problem. You'll have a difficult time repairing a defect without first identifying what it is. First, have a charging system test done, and find out what the state of your battery is. After that, you can take a digital multimeter or test light and test your electrical system from the alternator back to the battery.

Does the laptop become heavier after charging the battery?

No, the charge in the battery is a change in state of the battery contents, not an addition to the battery.

What does battery stave mean?

Battery stave means nothing at all. Battery state on the other hand means the state of charge of the battery. Is it fully charged or 75%- 50%- 25% charged, etc.


The total load 75 amps is continuous what size breaker is required?

This depends on your local electrical code, however the National Electrical Code and Canadian Electrical Code both state that you must derate circuits to 80% of their maximum electrical capacity, so for a load of 75 amps you must use overcurrent protection and wire rated for 93.5 amps, and since that doesn't exist you must upsize to 100 amps.


Electrical current flows from a state of rest to a high pressure state?

False. Electrical current flows from a high pressure state (called hot) to a state of rest (called ground or neutral).
