Default Charger - House Bank Sizing

I cant remember the rule of thumb for sizing an AC shore power

to the house bank size. Maybe 10% that is, 40 Ah charger for a 400

Ah
house bank????


A wet cell battery can accept an average of 15% of it's AH capacity as
a recharge rate over the charging cycle.

Thus, a 400AH bank will accept 60A recharge average over the recharge
cycle.
