Secure Waste Landfill - A landfill designed for disposal of normal household trash but which meets government standards designed to protect the environment.
Forced Discharge - Discharging a cell in a battery, by the other cells or an external power source, below zero volts into voltage reversal.
Energy - The output capability of a cell or battery, usually expressed in watt-hours.
End Voltage (also see Cutoff Voltage) - The prescribed voltage at which the discharge (or charge, if end-of-charge voltage) of a battery may be considered complete.
Positive Temperature Coefficient (PTC) - A thermally reactive device which becomes highly resistive at a specific temperature or current.
Reactance (subtransient Uscx %, for generator) - Relative measurement (%) of the internal impedance of an AC generator during harmonic phenomena. This reactance, also called the longitudinal subtransient reactance of the generator, is sometimes identified as X"d. For most common generators, the value ranges between 15 and 20%. It can drop to 12% for optimized systems and to 6% for special devices.
Charge Control - Technique for effectively terminating the charging of a rechargeable battery.
