How does the battery pack's voltage work?

The battery pack has a nominal voltage of 304.1 VDC. This is achieved by series-connecting modules in each rack (50.7 VDC * 6 = 304.1 VDC) and then connecting the racks in parallel, preserving the voltage.

How does the battery pack's electric charge work?

The battery pack has an electric charge of 210.1 Ah. This is calculated by multiplying the electric charge of a single module (105.1 Ah) by the number of modules in each rack (6) and then multiplying by the number of racks (2).
