Learning how to attach a BMS to a battery is one of the most important lessons you can learn regarding building safe and reliable lithium-ion batteries. A BMS only controls the negative end of the circuit, so no high-current positive connections need to be connected to the BMS. .
There are two sets of wires to consider when working with a BMS. There are a set of larger thick wires and there are also a higher number of smaller, thinner wires. The larger wires (or solder pads) are for the battery's charging and discharge connection. The. .
The next step is to attach the smaller, lower current balance wires to their proper locations. Most BMS will have one more balance wire than the number of series cells that it supports.. .
Now that all of the balance wires are connected, it's time to move on to the P- wire. This wire will be the negative charge and discharge connection. Remember, the BMS does perform its control over the battery through the negative battery connection. The. .
After you solder one end of your B- wire to the BMS, the next step is to attach it to your battery. If you have a pre-soldered BMS, then this is where you begin. The goal is to make the B- wire as short as possible. So, find a place on your battery that has enough. [pdf]
