Abstract
In a voltage measuring circuit for a composite fuel cell system, the potential of at least one point of the composite fuel cell system is detected by tapping the potential of such point, and feeding it to an input of an arrangement for evaluating the voltage. A potential shifting element is interposed between the at least one point of the composite fuel cell system and the input of the arrangement, which element is connected in series with a current sink or current source. A voltage supply circuit for such voltage measuring circuit of a composite fuel cell system comprising a plurality of individual fuel cells connected in series includes at least one voltage stabilization element connected in parallel with the circuit which is to be supplied with voltage by the composite fuel cell system. At least one current source or current sink is connected in series with this parallel circuit.
