NOTE
The Battery Management System (BMS) automatically monitors the
batteries and incorporates all safety functions.
Due to the communication between the battery charging unit /
battery backup converter (BBC), Battery Management System (BMS)
and higher level Energy Management System (EMS), the components
monitor one another and conduct a plausibility check on the meas-
urements.
In the event of a component failure, the system is shut down safely.
