How to prevent and deal with short circuit of lead-acid battery

Because the battery is in a short circuit state, its short circuit current can reach hundreds of amperes. If the short circuit contact is firm, the short circuit current will be greater, and all connected parts will generate a lot of heat. In the weak link, the heat will be greater, and the connection will be fused, resulting in short circuit.
