Abstract
A voltage detection device for detecting a voltage across both ends of each of plural unit batteries which are connected to each other in series. The voltage detection device includes lowpass filters which are connected to the respective unit batteries, a first voltage detector which detects a voltage across both ends of each of the unit batteries that is supplied via a corresponding lowpass filter, a second voltage detector which detects a voltage across both ends of each of the unit batteries that is supplied without passage through the corresponding lowpass filter, and a failure detector which detects whether the lowpass filter is failing by comparing a voltage detection value detected by the first voltage detector with a voltage detection value detected by the second voltage detector.
