The industry's commonly accepted practice suggests a typical
Flooded battery bank capacity ( ) of 1000Ah should not be
charged beyond 25% of its capacity (250A). Therefore, when

BULK output current is calculated as 250A (that is, 125A +

So, 125 100, gets an approximate value of 1.25 (or
125%) which means that even when the charger is
operating at 100% full power, the battery bank can more
than adequately accept the current the charger is

In this example, the actual output current is limited to 100%
of 100A which is 100A. Therefore, the actual System Total
BULK output current comes out to 200A.

The industry's commonly accepted practice suggests a typical
