2. Battery tester - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Battery_tester

   Battery tester. A battery tester is an electronic device intended for testing the state of an electric battery, going from a simple device for testing the charge actually present in the cells and/or its voltage output, to a more comprehensive testing of the battery's condition, namely its capacity for accumulating charge and any possible flaws affecting the battery's performance and security.

3. Solenoid voltmeter - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Solenoid_voltmeter

   Solenoid voltmeters are useless on low-voltage circuits (for example, 12 volt circuits). The basic range of the voltmeter starts at around 90V (AC or DC). Solenoid voltmeters are not precise. For example, there would be no reliably perceptible difference in the reading between 220 VAC and 240 VAC. They are meant for intermittent operation.

4. Load testing - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Load_testing

   A load test can be used to evaluate the health of a car's battery. The tester consists of a large resistor that has a resistance similar to a car's starter motor and a meter to read the battery's output voltage both in the unloaded and loaded state. When the tester is used, the battery's open circuit voltage is checked first.

5. Load bank - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Load_bank

   A load bank is a piece of electrical test equipment used to simulate an electrical load, to test an electric power source without connecting it to its normal operating load. [ 1 ] [ 2 ] During testing, adjustment, calibration, or verification procedures, a load bank is connected to the output of a power source, such as an electric generator ...

6. Load dump - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Load_dump

   Load dump means the disconnection of a powered load. It can cause two problems: failure of supply to equipment or customers; large voltage spikes from the inductive generator(s) In automotive electronics, it refers to the disconnection of the vehicle battery from the alternator while the battery is being charged. Due to such a disconnection of ...
