To make excessive charges.

An excessive load or burden.

An excessive charge in an account.

To charge more than the published tariff rate.

Continuous charging of a battery after it reaches full charge. The battery can no longer absorb any further charge and the charge current turns into heat, causing damage to the battery.

Having too much refrigerant in the A/C system

place too much a load on; "don't overload the car"

The forcing of current through a cell after all the active material has been converted to the charged state. In other words, charging continued after 100% state-of-charge is achieved. The result will be the decomposition of water in the electrolyte into hydrogen and oxygen gas.

The continuous charging of a cell after it achieves 100% of capacity. The battery life is reduced by prolonged over charge.

Continued charging after the full charge of a cell or battery.

Any rate charged by a public utility or carrier in excess of its authorized tariff rates.

The forcing of current through a cell after all the active material has been converted to the charged state, that is, continued charging after reaching 100 percent state-of-charge.

Forcing current into a fully charged battery. The battery will be damaged if overcharged for a long period.

To charge more than the proper amount according to the published or contracted rates.

A term used when too much refrigerant or oil is added to the refrigeration system. A condition where the charging system is supplying too much voltage/current to the battery.

Charging beyond the point where the full capacity of the battery occurred.
