CCA is a discharge for thirty seconds at the rated CCA in Amps normally done in a laboratory at -18 Deg C after a minimum duration of 16 hours in freezer with the battery condition charged at 100% prior to placing in the freezer.

This is not practical in a service centre but portable discharge-units are available which can load the battery at half the CCA rate for 15 seconds without too much heat being generated giving a useful load voltage result >9.6 Volts

How do you test the psi rating of a concrete hollow block and where can you test it?

by using the universal testing machine, you can get the actual max load needed to fracture the hollow block and by using the formula, Compressive strength =load(lb)/Areaofcrosssection(in2) u can get the psi rating..


Can you fix a bad battery?

If it only needs to be charged with a battery charger to bring it back to specified voltage and then holds the required load amp rating by testing it with a carbon pile can you restore a low battery. Nothing else can be done to it if this fails the test except recycle it and go buy a new one.


What is a zero cracking power?

ZERO CRANKING POWER: It was the first cold weather rating and is applicable in relation to crafts which ply in freezing weather.This-degree performance test gives a valuable insight into battery quality.Large batteries are tested at a 300 A drain with battery chilled to -18 C (0 F) whereas smaller sizes are tested at half this value.This test consist of two part (a) the battery is first chilled to - 18 C (0 F) and the load applied for 5 second.Mean while,the voltage output is recorded.It is first part of zero-cranking power rating.(b)The test is continued further till voltage drops to 5 V.The number of minutes it takes to reduce the voltage to 5 V forms the second half of the rating.Higher both the digits,better the battery quality.
