Cold Cranking Amps (CCA)

Capacity (Ah)

Example of CCA to Ah Calculations

To convert cold cranking amps (CCA) to ampere-hours (Ah), a common approximation is used, though it's important to note that this conversion is not exact due to the different nature of these measurements. A rough estimation often used in the industry is:

Ah≈CCA/7.25A

This approximation can vary depending on the specific battery and its design, but it gives a general idea.

Convert 1000 CCA to Ah

To convert 1000 CCA to Ah:

Ah=1000/7.25≈137.93 Ah

What Is a CCA?

Cold Cranking Amps (CCA) is a rating used in the battery industry to define a battery's ability to start an engine in cold temperatures. It measures how many amps a 12-volt battery can deliver at 0°F (-18°C) for 30 seconds while maintaining a voltage of at least 7.2 volts. The higher the CCA rating, the greater the starting power of the battery.

What Is an Ah?

An ampere-hour (Ah) is a unit of electric charge. It represents the amount of electric charge transferred by a steady current of one ampere flowing for one hour. Ampere-hours are commonly used to describe the capacity of a battery, indicating how much charge it can deliver over time.
