Question
What role does state of charge (SoC) play in battery diagnostics?
Answer
State of charge indicates how much usable energy remains in the battery relative to its full capacity.
Explain
CHEPQ testers measure SoC to differentiate between discharged and failing batteries. A low SoC can be restored by charging, while a failing battery shows poor SoC even after charging, preventing unnecessary replacements.
