Abstract:
A voltage detection apparatus for an assembled battery includes: a capacitor; input-side switches provided between the capacitor and detection targets each including at least one battery cell; a voltage detection unit configured to detect the voltage of the capacitor; output-side switches provided between the capacitor and the voltage detection unit; a capacitor charging unit configured to charge the capacitor using a specific detection target; a first-voltage acquiring unit configured to acquire a first voltage which is the voltage of the capacitor after the passage of a first period from the charging of the capacitor; a second-voltage acquiring unit configured to acquire a second voltage which is the voltage of the capacitor after the passage of a second period from the acquisition of the first voltage; and a fault determining unit configured to determine, based on the acquired first and second voltages, whether a leak fault has occurred in the capacitor.
