    Abstract: A power distribution system includes a battery having multiple power cell groups. Each power cell group includes at least two power cells and a state of charge monitoring sensor. A controller is connected to each state of charge monitoring sensor. The controller is configured to run a process causing the processor to detect a slow self-discharge in at least one power cell group by monitoring a cell balancing metric for each power cell group and generating a set of accumulated balance metric values. The set of accumulated balancing metric values includes an accumulated balancing metric value corresponding to each power cell group in the plurality of power cell groups. The process identifies a reference value and a difference between the reference value and the cell balancing metric of each power cell with a cell balancing metric lower than the reference value and comparing the difference to a threshold.
