I'm starting a small transportation business with a partner, we have a US DOT # already, Do I also need a ICC-MC # and what is it for? We are transporting interstate and I want to be in compliance.
The Volt unit is named after Alessandro Volta, an Italian physicist who invented an electric battery.
A galvanic cell, or voltaic cell, named after Luigi Galvani, or Alessandro Volta respectively, is an electrochemical cell that derives electrical energy from spontaneous redox reactions taking place within the cell. It generally consists of two different metals connected by a salt bridge, or individual half-cells separated by a porous membrane. Volta was the inventor of the voltaic pile, the first electrical battery. In common usage, the word battery has come to include a single galvanic cell, but a battery properly consists of multiple cells.
