Abstract: A battery pack comprises a battery and a flexible printed circuit board (FPC) utilized to detect a voltage and a temperature of the battery. The FPC comprises a substrate having a front surface and a back surface, a thermistor which detects a temperature of the battery, temperature detection lines and voltage detection lines. The temperature detection lines are electrically connected to a thermistor and arranged between the back surface and the battery. The voltage detection lines are arranged on the front surface so as to overlap the temperature detection lines in a case that the FPC is observed in a plane view in a transmissive manner from a back surface to a front surface.

Abstract: A voltage monitoring system includes a first connection line group connected to input terminals of a first monitoring IC, a first connector configured to connect or disconnect connection lines of the first connection line group to or from connection points each arranged on a side of a positive electrode or negative electrode of any one of battery cells of a first battery group, a second connection line group connected to input terminals of a second monitoring IC, and a second connector configured to connect or disconnect connection lines of the second connection line group to or from connection points arranged on a side of a positive electrode or negative electrode of any one of battery cells of a second battery group. The first monitoring IC is electrically isolated from the second monitoring IC. The first connection line group is electrically isolated from the second connection line group.

Abstract: A first electrical storage stack is connected in series with a second electrical storage stack. A current interrupter is configured to interrupt a current path by being removed from the current path. First and second detection line are respectively connected to first and second terminals of the first electrical storage stack. The second electrical storage stack is connected to the second terminal of the first electrical storage stack via the current interrupter. A third detection line is connected to a portion of the current path, located on the second electrical storage stack side of the current interrupter. A controller is configured to control charging and discharging operations of each of the first and second electrical storage stacks on the basis of the voltage of the first electrical storage stack, the voltage being detected via the first detection line and the third detection line.
