✦ Synopsis

Following the capacity test the battery is recharged according to the above procedure and then discharged with a constant current at a two hour rate to check that the operation is satisfactory. Finally a cooling system load test is carried out by discharging the battery with cu. 80% of the max. battery current. This equals a one hour rate discharge.
