According to the method of the invention, a current-dissipating loop (10) is mounted in parallel across the terminals of each battery cell, the voltage across the terminals of each battery cell is measured, an average value of the measured voltages is determined, each measured voltage is compared to said average value, and for a given battery cell, the measured voltage is adjusted to said average value so as to equalize the charges of all the battery cells.",
