Battery leakage tests, noting that surface leakage is negligible but internal leakage may be an issue.

In fact they prove that the leakage over the tops of dry batteries (batteries not wet on the top with acid or water). is negligible. The table on the following page gives the results obtained on discharge. That the cells in this battery are not consistently good is obvious, & perhaps internal leakage has ( Contd ) Signed This Sheet must be filed on completion of the work. | ||
