Battery FAQs

What is meant by battery capacity?

The capacity is the amount of electrical power that a battery can deliver under specific conditions. It is the product of the current and the time (ampere-hour, Ah).

The capacity is not a fixed parameter, but depends, among other things, on the following factors:

»  The level of the discharge current (the larger the discharge current, the smaller the capacity that can be used).

»  The discharge process according to time (the capacity will be greater if there is a pause during the discharge than if the discharge process is continuous).

»  The age of the battery (due to the loss of active material from the plates, the Ah capacity decreases when the battery is coming to the end of its service life).
