La force électromotrice d'un générateur n'est rien d'autre que la différence de potentiel à ses bornes lorsqu'il ne débite aucun courant. En mettant la sortie du générateur en opposition avec une différence de potentiel réglable et connue (Vcb), la force électromotrice peut être déterminée. 5, record 1, French, - force%20%C3%A9lectromotrice

Examinons le cas extrême où la résistance de charge a une valeur très élevée. Le courant dans la charge prend une valeur négligeable. On se trouve dans les conditions d'un circuit ouvert et le courant d'obscurité équilibre le courant-lumière. La tension aux bornes de la pile solaire a une valeur maximale (Vco). On obtient donc la tension de circuit ouvert [...] 1, record 2, French, - tension%20de%20circuit%20ouvert
