Measurement of the open cir-
cuit voltage (OCV)
14
The measurement of the open circuit voltage is a simple
and effective method for checking the condition of the bat-
tery. “OCV” is understood to mean the voltage of the
charged battery in a quiescent state, without any current
being supplied or drained. As a rule a built-in voltmeter is
present for this measurement in mobile homes and boats.
If this is not available, an external instrument can be
purchased at very small cost from a specialist dealer.
➡
The measurement should take place 24 hours after the
last charge at the earliest. The battery must not be loa-
ded in the meantime, i.e. no current must be drained.
