Abstract
A system for detecting liquid on a battery or on an electronic device connected with the battery is presented. The battery has an electrical contact for transferring current from the battery to the electronic device. The system includes a sensor for detecting liquid on the battery or on the electronic device and sensor circuitry connected with the sensor. The sensor circuitry prevents current from flowing through the electrical contact of the battery upon detecting liquid.
