Voltage monitoring arrangement for an electric cell stack, particularly for a fuel cell stack

Abstract

A voltage monitoring arrangement is provided for an electric cell stack including a plurality of electric plates sandwiching insulation layers, wherein the voltage monitoring arrangement is configured to monitor a voltage of at least one electric plate of the electric cell stack, wherein the voltage monitoring arrangement includes at least one voltage monitoring unit with a contact element being in contact with the at least one electric plate, a first signal line being configured to supply a first signal from a signal source to a processing unit, wherein the voltage monitoring unit includes a first signal path interrupting element interposed in the first signal line, wherein the first signal path interrupting element is connected to the contact element and is configured to forward the first signal dependent on a voltage being present at the at least one electric plate, wherein the voltage monitoring arrangement includes a support element being designed to be arranged within the electric cell stack, wherein the support element is configured to support at least the contact element.
