NOTES for Fig 5.4
1. Please see Srl. 1 of Table 5.3 for details of charging process
2. Voltage (V) and Current (I) curves show the battery voltage and current.
3. The Voltage (V) and Current (I) curves shown are based on the following operating conditions:
a) The battery is being charged exclusively by the Battery charging Section of EVO and that there is NO external charging source that is
charging the battery / battery bank
b) There is no external DC load on the battery / battery bank (the entire current delivered by the Charging Section of EVO is being used
to charge the battery / battery bank)
4. Please see Section 5.7.4 regarding conditions under which the charger will be forced to reset automatically and restart charging from the
1
