Cold Cranking Ampere (CCA): A rating used in the battery
industry to define a battery''s ability to start an engine in cold
temperatures.
–
The rating is the number of amps a new, fully charged battery
can deliver at -18 °C(-0.4 °F) for 30 seconds, while maintaining a
voltage of at least 7.2 volts for a 12 volt battery.
–
The higher the CCA rating, the greater the starting power of the battery.
•
RESERVE CAPACITY (RC) : A battery industry rating, defining a
battery''s ability to power a vehicle with an inoperative alternator or
fan belt.
–
The rating is the number of minutes a battery at 26.7 °C(80
°F) can be discharged at 25 amps and maintain a voltage of 10.5 volts
for a 12 volt battery.
–
The higher the reserve rating, the longer your vehicle can operate should your alternator or fan belt fail.
