Abstract (en)

[origin: WO2022263732A1] The invention relates to a method for protecting a circuit comprising a switch (6) and a battery with several modules (1, N) by detecting a defective screwed electrical connection (3), two adjacent modules being connected by a connection bar (4) attached to one of the two adjacent modules by a screwed electrical connection (3), an overall voltage at the terminals of the circuit being measured and a voltage for each connection bar (4) being measured between its two electrical connections (3). If the overall voltage (Vp) at the terminals of the circuit reduced by a sum of the voltages (V1 to VN-1) of the connection bars (4) between their two screwed electrical connections (3) is greater than a first predetermined voltage value, it is concluded that at least one of the screwed electrical connections (3) is defective and the switch (6) is at least temporarily open or a first alert requesting the opening of the switch (6) is emitted.
