Battery Diagnosis Apparatus And Method For Leakage Current Detection

An apparatus for diagnosing a battery located in a battery system including one or more batteries, the apparatus may include: at least one processor; and a memory configured to store instructions executed by the at least one processor to collect state of charge information of the battery when the battery system is in a standby mode; calculate an amount of power change of the battery during a maintaining period of the standby mode based on the collected state of charge information and pre-stored initial state of charge information; and compare the calculated amount of power change with an expected amount of discharge power of the battery and to determine whether a leakage current occurs in the battery system based on the comparison.
