Battery Boxes Testing Equipment
-
Battery boxes can be tested for faults by placing the box on a metal plate. By applying a test voltage to an electrode inside the box, the moulding can be checked thoroughly - particularly at the injection points - and any faults found. Defects will be identified by a spark passing from the electrode, through the defect itself, to earth (the conductive material placed outside the battery box.
