Rated battery voltage definition

Rated battery voltage means the battery voltage specified by the manufacturer and typically printed on the label of the battery itself. If a batch of batteries includes series connections, the Rated Battery Voltage of the batch is the total voltage of the series configuration, that is, the rated voltage of each battery times the number of batteries connected in series. Connecting multiple batteries in parallel does not affect the Rated Battery Voltage. If not printed on the battery, the rated battery voltage can be derived from the electrical configuration and chemistry of the battery.
