    8 Electrical Fittings Capacity Capacity refers to the amount of electricity which can be stored in a battery. The capacity of a battery is given in ampere hours (Ah). If a battery possesses a capacity of 80 Ah, then the battery can dispense a current of 1 A for 80 hours or a current of 2 A for 40 hours. External influences such as temperature may alter the storage capacity of the battery.

    Electrical Fittings 8 The starter battery can only be fully charged with an external charger. If a 240 V power supply is used, the transformer/rectifier charges the starter battery with a float charge only. Even in mobile op- eration, the vehicle engine alternator has a limited capability of completely charging the starter bat- tery.
