What should be the current when starting a car?
1 Answers
When starting a car, the current should be around 10A. The car battery provides the current for starting the car. When the generator is overloaded, it can assist the generator in supplying power to the electrical equipment. When the engine is idling, it supplies power to the electrical equipment. The battery is also a large-capacity capacitor that can protect the car's electrical appliances. When the generator's terminal voltage is higher than the electromotive force of the lead-acid battery, it can also charge. The starting current refers to the minimum current obtainable under specific conditions at temperatures between -17.8°C and -28.9°C, linking the battery's starting capability with the engine's displacement, compression ratio, temperature, the technical state of the engine and electrical system, the minimum operating voltage for starting and ignition, and other variables.
