Abstract
This application relates to a battery module, a battery pack, an apparatus, and a failure handling method. The battery module includes: a plurality of battery units configured to be serially-connected, where the plurality of battery units include a failed battery unit and at least one non-failed battery unit after the battery module fails; and a conductive part, electrically connected to the at least one non-failed battery unit, and configured to make a current bypass an electrode assembly of the failed battery unit so that the battery module resumes working. This application simplifies a maintenance process of the battery module, reduces maintenance cost, and improves working efficiency of the battery module.
