Abstract
A fail signal indicating overcharge/overdischarge of unit cells detected by voltage detecting ICs (-) to (-) is transmitted as a digital signal and an analog signal to a CPU. If the analog fail signal and digital fail signal agree with each other, the CPUdetermines that overcharge or overdischarge is occurring in the unit cells. If the fail signals disagree with each other, it is determined that an error is occurring in data communication in communication lines Lto Land the error is informed to an operator with an alarm signal or the like. As a result, overcharge or overdischarge is highly accurately detectable.
