  2. Series and parallel circuits - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Series_and_parallel_circuits

    In a parallel circuit, the voltage across each of the components is the same, and the total current is the sum of the currents flowing through each component. [1] Consider a very simple circuit consisting of four light bulbs and a 12-volt automotive battery. If a wire joins the battery to one bulb, to the next bulb, to the next bulb, to the ...

  3. Battery room - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Battery_room

    Batteries are installed in groups. Several batteries are wired together in a series circuit forming a group providing DC electric power at 12, 24, 48 or 60 volts (or higher). Usually there are two or more groups of series-connected batteries. These groups of batteries are connected in a parallel circuit.

  4. Battery pack - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Battery_pack

    A battery pack is a set of any number of (preferably) identical batteries or individual battery cells. [1] [2] They may be configured in a series, parallel or a mixture of both to deliver the desired voltage and current. The term battery pack is often used in reference to cordless tools, radio-controlled hobby toys, and battery electric vehicles.

  5. Battery holder - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Battery_holder

    Battery types such as the 9-volt have snap-on contacts. Battery holders for zinc-air batteries must not be completely air-tight since approximately 1 litre of air is required per ampere-hour of discharge per cell. The battery holder may include a valve integrated with the device power switch to allow air to be admitted when the device is ...

  6. Equivalent circuit model for Li-ion cells - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Equivalent_circuit_model...

    The equivalent circuit model (ECM) is a common lumped-element model for Lithium-ion battery cells. [ 1 ] [ 2 ] [ 3 ] The ECM simulates the terminal voltage dynamics of a Li-ion cell through an equivalent electrical network composed passive elements, such as resistors and capacitors , and a voltage generator .

  7. Bridge circuit - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bridge_circuit

    It is constructed from four resistors, two of known values R 1 and R 3 (see diagram), one whose resistance is to be determined R x, and one which is variable and calibrated R 2. Two opposite vertices are connected to a source of electric current, such as a battery, and a galvanometer is connected across the other two vertices. The variable ...

  8. Power electronics - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Power_electronics

    In hybrid electric vehicles (HEVs), power electronics are used in two formats: series hybrid and parallel hybrid. The difference between a series hybrid and a parallel hybrid is the relationship of the electric motor to the internal combustion engine (ICE). Devices used in electric vehicles consist mostly of dc/dc converters for battery ...

  9. Electrical element - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Electrical_element

    A current source in parallel may be added to represent its leakage (which discharges the battery over a long period). On a first degree of approximation, a resistor is represented by a resistance. A more refined model also includes a series inductance to represent the effects of its lead inductance (resistors constructed as a spiral have more ...
