  • Kelvin Connector Including Temperature Sensor
    Publication number: 20080094068
    Abstract: The electrical measuring apparatus (17) and temperature sensing apparatus minimises the number of connections required for each contact (30, 31) of a battery (18). The present invention measures the core temperature of the battery (18) which is useful in monitoring the health of the battery (18). The apparatus comprises first connection means to connect to the first contact (30) of the battery (18) and second connection means to connect to the second contact (31) of the battery (18). The apparatus includes a thermistor (36) which connects in series with one lead (32) of the connecting means. Accordingly, the apparatus does not require the temperature sensor (36) to be independently connected to the battery (18).
