Batteriespannung
Batteriespannung refers to the electrical potential difference between the positive and negative terminals of a battery. It is a fundamental characteristic of a battery and determines its ability to drive an electric current through a circuit. The unit of measurement for batteriespannung is volts (V). Each electrochemical cell within a battery contributes a specific voltage, and the total batteriespannung of a battery pack is the sum of the voltages of its individual cells connected in series. For example, a common AA battery, which is a single cell, typically has a nominal voltage of 1.5V, while a car battery, composed of multiple cells, has a nominal voltage of 12V. The batteriespannung is an indicator of the battery's state of charge, although it can fluctuate depending on the load applied. A fully charged battery will generally exhibit a higher batteriespannung than a partially discharged one. When a battery is depleted, its batteriespannung drops significantly, and it can no longer effectively power devices. Different types of batteries have different nominal batteriespannungen due to their unique chemical compositions.
