BMS_a030 — Impedance Deviation

Full alert identifier: BMS_a030_Impedance_Deviation

Alert description

High impedance was detected on one or more bricks.

Potential impact

One or more cells in a brick are likely missing, resulting in a high impedance current path. Other potential causes are a high Direct Current Resistance (DCR), intermittent anode laser weld on the given brick(s), or an islanded brick.

Set condition

Impedance for one or more bricks exceeds the noise threshold for several measurement counts.

Clear condition

All bricks have impedance measurements within the noise threshold.
