    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.

    Abstract: Techniques are provided for generating an internal short circuit prediction of a battery cell. In one embodiment, the techniques involve receiving feature measurements of a plurality of cells, determining a snapshot moving average of the feature measurement of each of the plurality of cells based on a corresponding measurement window, determining a health indicator of each of the plurality of cells based on the respective snapshot moving averages, ranking a plurality of health indicators of the respective plurality of cells, wherein the plurality of health indicators is ranked by magnitude, determining a short circuit threshold value based on a second-ranked health indicator, and upon determining that a first-ranked health indicator exceeds the short circuit threshold value, generating a prediction of a short circuit in a cell corresponding to the first-ranked health indicator.
