What is the approximate discharge voltage produced by one cell of a wet type nickel- cadmium battery at 75% of charge?
Official USCG Answer & Rule Citation
Correct Answer: Option A — 1.2 volts
Wet-cell nickel-cadmium batteries maintain a remarkably flat discharge curve throughout their operational cycle. At 75 percent charge state, the discharge voltage remains stable at approximately the nominal cell rating of 1.2 volts.
