Equalization is a balancing charging stage, the purpose is to balance the individual cell of the battery, make each cell to be equal state, look into the internal construction of a Lead acid battery, it consists of many individual cell connected in series, each cell is at 2V; After many charging and discharging cycles, the voltage on the individual cell are not balance, certain cells will obtain undercharge, but the total voltage of the battery is still in a fully charge state; for this situation, using a small charging current to further push up the battery voltage to a safe higher level for a short time, this can help to bring the voltage of each internal cell to the full charging state; Powerprow solar controller will automatically run Equalization mode as per the charging time taken via program control.
