Electrode - The site, area or location at which electrochemical processes take place.
Rated Capacity - The number of ampere-hours a battery can deliver under specific conditions (e.g., rate of discharge, end voltage, temperature); usually specified by the battery manufacturer.
Thermistor - A temperature sensitive resistor, usually made from specially processed oxides.
Rechargeable (or "Secondary") Battery - A galvanic battery which, after discharge, may be restored to the fully charged state by the passage of an electrical current through the cell in the opposite direction to that of discharge.
Output (rated) - Apparent power Pn that the UPS can deliver under given load conditions (power factor = 0.8).
Electromagnetic compatibility - Possibility of a device to operate normally when installed near other devices, given the disturbances emitted by each device and their mutual sensitivities.
Continuous Test - A test in which a battery is discharged to a prescribed end point voltage without interruption.
