When the engine is off or at low idle, it powers the vehicle's electrical equipment; 3. Assists in powering electrical devices when the alternator's output is insufficient; 4. Mitigates voltage surges in the electrical system to protect electronic components; 5. Stores excess electricity generated by the alternator.
