The present disclosure relates to a cable system for cable condition monitoring, a use of such a cable system, a method for manufacturing such a cable system, a method for operating such a cable system and a computer program element for operating such a cable system. The cable system includes a first adapter unit, a first sleeve unit and a cable including at least a first end portion. The first adapter unit is connectable to an energy storage system and the cable is configured for transferring electric power to the first adapter unit. The first sleeve unit is arranged between the first adapter unit and the first end portion of the cable and configured for providing protection therebetween. The first sleeve unit includes a first sensor unit configured for generating data based on strain exerted on the first sleeve unit. The first sensor unit includes a first flexible electronic element extending at least partially to the first end portion of the cable.

Cable system for cable condition monitoring

The present disclosure relates to a monitoring system for an energy storage system, an energy storage system comprising such a monitoring system, a vehicle comprising such an energy storage system and a manufacturing method for such a monitoring system. The monitoring system for an energy storage system comprises a plurality of energy storage cells comprising at least one stretchable electronic unit and a communication element. The stretchable electronic unit is arrangeable at least at one of the energy storage cells. The stretchable electronic unit is configured to generate data based on strain applied on the stretchable electronic unit. The communication element is integrated in the stretchable electronic unit and configured to transfer data generated by the stretchable electronic unit.
