Battery System Testing
A battery system must be inspected and tested at regular intervals. There are many reasons to thoroughly inspect a battery system:
- Battery charger settings need attention
- Faulty charging shortens a battery’s service life
- Voltages can vary so much from cell to cell that an equalizing charge is needed
- There may be corrosion on the terminal posts and at internal connections
- Leakage
- Improper ambient temperature and/or ventilation
