Technical FAQs 4

What is cell voltage measurement?

Cell voltage measurement is defined as the process of quantifying the voltage of individual battery cells or a battery pack, which is essential for determining the state of charge (SOC) and ensuring accurate battery management in various applications.

How to check battery cell voltage accurately and safely?

To check battery cell voltage accurately and safely, you’ll need a few essential tools. The quality and precision of your tools directly affect the accuracy of your readings and your safety during the process—especially when working with high-capacity battery packs. 1. Digital Multimeter (DMM)

How do you test a battery with a multimeter?

Connect multimeter probes to battery & measure the voltage. The voltage should fall across the specified in the cell or battery’s datasheet. For NMC (Nickel-Manganese-Cobalt), this will range between 2.5 V & 4.2 V per cell. An LFP (Lithium Iron Phosphate) cell (or) battery will have a voltage between 2.5 V and 3.7 V.

How is Lib voltage measured?

At present, the most widely-used method for LIB voltage measurement is applying the integrated circuits to collect individual cell voltage signals, which are then converted by ADC for further processing in the controller . It is relatively rare to develop a dedicated voltage sensor for battery cells and packs.
