Battery/Cell Arrangement
From Unofficial Zero Manual
Cell arrangement (also battery arrangement or battery configuration) refers to how the cells are grouped to provide power with sufficient current and voltage output for the application.
- Series arrangements raise pack voltage
- Parallel arrangements increase pack current capacity, as well as balance cells if they are cross-connected.
- Notation
- See Battery Cell Arrangement Notation to understand how Zero's battery cell arrangements are described.
