[0061] The sensing system is used to collect environmental information of the battery box cabinet and transmit it to the control system 1.
[0062] The intelligent circuit breaker 5 is installed on the power supply line connecting the battery box cabinet and the marine system. It should be noted that, since the main innovation of this invention lies in the battery detection system, the specific installation location of the intelligent circuit breaker 5 can be set in different locations according to the needs of different ships. This invention only presents the basic technical concept; therefore, the power supply line connecting the marine system is not shown. However, those skilled in the art can understand how to set it up based on common knowledge and known technology.
