Cell short circuit results in_________?
Correct answer: D. all above
- A. low sp. gravity electrolyte
- B. abnormal high temperature
- C. reduced gassing on charge
- D. all above
Explanation
A short circuit rapidly discharges the cell, lowers electrolyte specific gravity, and produces abnormal heating. It also reduces normal gassing during charging because the shorted cell cannot develop its usual charging voltage, so all listed effects are intended.
