Zusammenfassung:Exemplary embodiments provide a method and a system for determining cell imbalance condition of a multi-cell battery (190) including a plurality of cell strings (180a-b). To determine a cell imbalance condition, a charge current is applied to the battery (190) and is monitored during charging. The charging time for each cell string (180) is determined based on monitoring of the charge current. A charge time difference (”T) of any two cell strings (180a-b) in the battery (190) is used to determine the cell imbalance condition by comparing with a predetermined acceptable charge time difference (”T acpt ) for the cell strings (180a-b).
