The individual 6 volt lead-acid batteries, when connected as shown in the illustration, as a battery bank would produce how many volts? Illustration EL-0070

Correct Answer: Option B — 6 volts

Wiring identical voltage sources in a parallel configuration increases current capacity while keeping the voltage output equal to that of a single cell. Connecting multiple 6-volt lead-acid batteries in parallel results in a total bank output of 6 volts, conforming to parallel circuit fundamentals.
