Batteries that are out of balance cannot be fully charged or fully discharged, and the imbalance causes cells to wear and degrade at accelerated rates. Cell differences arise during both manufacturing and. . Battery balancing is the process of equalizing the charge across individual cells in a battery or individual batteries in battery groups to ensure uniform voltage levels, or state of charge (SOC). This process helps prevent overcharging or undercharging of cells, which can lead to performance. . The means used to perform cell balancing typically include by-passing some of the cells during charge (and sometimes during discharge) by connecting external loads parallel to the cells through controlling corresponding FETs. The typical by-pass current ranges from a few milliamps to amperes. One major factor in battery performance is balancing.
