Abstract:
An electrical system includes a stack (3) of electrochemical cells (5), a power converter (9) electrically connected to the stack (3), a voltage comparator (7) for comparing the voltage at the terminals of at least one group of at least one electrochemical cell (5) of the stack (3) to a threshold voltage, and a control module (11) for controlling the converter (9). The control module (11) includes a generator (74) for generating a control instruction for controlling the converter (9) and a transmission member (76) for transmitting the control instruction to the converter (9). The voltage comparator (7) is suitable for transmitting a signal to the transmission member (76). The signal consists of a first instruction from an instruction for transmitting and an instruction for blocking the control instruction when the compared voltage is higher than the threshold voltage, and a second instruction from the instructions for transmitting and blocking the control instruction when the compared voltage is lower than or equal to the threshold voltage.
