CALCULATING PEUKERT'S EXPONENT
Example of using Reserve Minutes @ 25 Amps
and the 20 hour rate to calculate "n".
First convert Reserve Minutes to hours, then find the discharge cur-
rent at the 20 hour rating. Finally use a calculator to solve the arith-
metic.
Trojan T-105:
Reserve Minutes = 447 min @ 25 Amps.
t
1
= 447 min = 447/60 = 7.45 hrs
I
1
= 25 Amps
20 Hour rating = 225 Ahr
t
2
= 20 hours
I
1
= 225 Amp-hours/20 hours = 11.25 Amps
