To treat (plates) to prepare them for introduction into a storage battery, causing one plate to be composed more or less of spongy lead, and the other of lead peroxide. This was formerly done by repeated slow alternations of the charging current, but later the plates or grids were coated or filled, one with a paste of red lead and the other with litharge, introduced into the cell, and formed by a direct charging current.
Las placas de la batería se trataron aplicando cuidadosamente una pasta y luego cargándolas con corriente continua, preparándolas para su uso en el coche eléctrico.
