is said to have a capacity of ten ampere hours.As a general rule, it maybe estimated that an accumu-lator has a capacity of six ampere hours for eachsquare foot of positive plate surface. For charging storage batteries the shunt dynamo isgenerally used, and the voltage must be kept as… … FIGURE 108. action. The ammeter A, in the battery line, shouldbe of a kind which indicates the direction of the cur-rent passing through it. The rheostat R is used toregulate the charging current and the voltmeter V isconnected so that either the voltage of the dynamo orthe battery may be taken. In…
