About Battery pack parallel to BMS
When using standard BMS, parallel connection of lithium batteries is not acceptable due to very likely damage to the BMS electronics (which may result in damage to the cells). This is the result of uncontrolled current flow between batteries due to the difference in voltage and internal resistance.

6 FAQs about [Battery pack parallel to BMS]
Can a BMS connect a battery in parallel?
A BMS can manage the connection within the three packs connected in series. However, putting cells in parallel just makes them behave like a bigger single cell. A BMS typically does not manage batteries connected in parallel within each set.
How does a BMS module protect batteries?
A BMS (Battery Management System) keeps an eye on the voltage and keeps it from going too high or too low. Thus, would I then use a BMS module that connects three batteries in a series, or would I need to have a BMS with 12 connections, including the cells that are connected in parallel.
How many BMSs are needed for 4 parallel sets of 3s batteries?
With 4 parallel sets of 3s batteries, you'd have 4 BMSs and only make parallel connections at the ends of each series chain. If you have a 3s battery then that has its own BMS. If you have another 3s battery then that should have its own BMS.
What happens if you don't use a BMS with parallel lithium batteries?
Not having a BMS on any additional batteries running in parallel will fail to keep the non BMS batteries in balance. Which will cause them to degrade quicker. For 1 there is a reason lithium cells require a BMS to be used safely.
What is a BMS for parallel cells?
A BMS for parallel cells performs several essential functions: Cell Balancing: The BMS for batteries in parallel ensures that all batteries in the parallel configuration have similar state-of-charge levels. It can balance the charge across individual cells or strings to prevent overcharging or over-discharging of any particular battery.
What is a parallel battery management system (BMS)?
A Parallel BMS plays an important role in achieving safe and efficient parallel battery configurations. It continuously monitors the voltage, temperature and charging status of each battery, ensuring that the battery is balanced and protected during the charge and discharge cycle. A BMS for parallel cells performs several essential functions:
