Abstract
When connecting a plurality of cells in parallel, an operation to calculate an inrush current flowing when a pair of cells are selected from the cells for the parallel-connection and parallel-connected for all cell combinations. A cell combination, whose inrush current is the largest in the cell combinations which are judged that the calculated inrush current is less than or equal to a predetermined upper limit current value, is set as a cell combination to parallel-connect the cells.
