March 1, 2021 - Vista, California - Axiom Test Equipment, an electronic test equipment rental and sales company, has published a new blog post entitled, "Make Sure That Electric Car Does Not Run out of Juice," that informs people who are looking to monitor the battery and charging system of their electric vehicle (EV), hybrid electric vehicle (HEV), or a plug-in hybrid electric vehicle (PHEV). Learn how you can maintain a healthy and high performing battery through our informative guide.

In order to ensure that your EV is driving smoothly, you must do careful maintenance of the battery and powertrains. Two of the most significant tests includes an internal resistance test and a battery capacity / discharge test. Doing these tests with the proper equipment will allow you to see if your EV can handle short circuits, over-voltage conditions, and over charging.

Learn more about the most important equipment you will need when testing your EV's battery and charging system by reading the full blog post on Axiom's website.

Making sure the batteries are charged no longer applies just to the flashlight. Whether it is an electric vehicle (EV), a hybrid electric vehicle (HEV), or a plug-in hybrid electric vehicle (PHEV), a growing number of vehicles are running on electricity rather than gasoline or diesel fuel. Keeping them running requires careful maintenance of the batteries and powertrains in these environmentally friendly vehicles.

Running out of gas was once a concern for a vehicle with an internal-combustion engine; now, with an EV, HEV, or PHEV, it is a matter of keeping the vehicle's batteries and charging system in shape for the long haul. The battery chemistries in EVs, HEVs, and PHEVs differ, such as lithium-ion, nickel-metal hydride, and lead-acid batteries or ultracapacitor electrical energy storage configurations used to drive a vehicle's traction motor. But batteries and their charging systems can be evaluated with a handful of straightforward measurements and suitable test equipment.

Commercial battery packs for EVs, HEVs, and PHEVs are designed to produce a certain amount of current for a given amount of time, with typical operating lifetimes of 8 years and 100,000 miles. Vehicle owners desire certain battery characteristics, such as the greatest number of charge/discharge cycles and low self-discharge rate...
