Abstract: A battery system having a battery pack with a positive pole, a negative pole, at least one battery cell, and a pack voltage divider, and at least one high-voltage coupling network electrically connectable to the battery pack, having a positive terminal, a negative terminal, and a link voltage divider. The pack voltage divider comprises a first measuring resistance (RM1) and a first measuring switch (SM1) connected to one another between the negative pole and a first reference point, and a second measuring resistance (RM2) and a second measuring switch (SM2) connected to one another between the positive pole and the first reference point. The link voltage divider comprises a third measuring resistance (RM3) connected between the negative terminal and a second reference point, and a fourth measuring resistance (RM4) connected between the positive terminal and the second reference point.

Abstract: The invention relates to a method for operating an electric energy store (1), to an electric energy store (1), and to a device, having an electric energy storage module (18), a switch unit (4), and a first and second connection (5, 7). The method has the following steps which follow one another chronologically: in a first step, a signal of a sensor of the electric energy store (1) is evaluated; in a second step, a critical state of the electric energy store (1) is ascertained; in a third step, an electrically conductive connection between the electric energy storage module (18) and the first and second connection (5, 7) is interrupted in the charge direction by means of the switch unit (4), while simultaneously the electrically conductive connection between the electric energy storage module (18) and the first and second connection (5, 7) remains connected in the discharge direction.
