Abstract

A relay diagnosis apparatus includes a first voltage detection circuit to generate first and second diagnosis voltages between positive and negative electrode terminals of a battery assembly and a chassis, respectively; and a controller to determine first and second insulation resistances between the positive and negative electrode terminals and the chassis, respectively, based on the first and second diagnosis voltages at first and second time points while respective relays are controlled into an off-state. The controller determines third and fourth insulation resistances between the positive and negative electrode terminals and the chassis, respectively, based on the first and second diagnosis voltages at third and fourth time points while the first and second relays are controlled into an on-state. The controller detects relay faults based on the insulation resistances.
