(4) The battery pack for the B406-4 ELT consists of four “D” size lithium manganese dioxide cells

connected in series. In an effort to increase the safety of the battery pack, a number of

features were designed into the battery pack. To prevent the cells from being charged, diodes

are connected across each cell and fuses are connected to the output. See Figure 4. Battery
