The present disclosure provides an electrical device including a battery cell, a voltage sensor operatively coupled to the battery cell in order to measure a voltage level of the battery cell, a current sensor operatively coupled to the battery cell in order to measure an amount of current drawn from or supplied to the battery cell, and a battery management system (BMS). The battery management system includes a controller In communication with the voltage sensor and the current sensor. The controller is configured to execute a program stored in the BMS to calculate a state of health of the individual battery electrodes comprising a battery cell using a first differential voltage point, a second differential voltage point, and a characteristic curve of a fresh battery electrode of a fresh battery cell, wherein the battery cell includes a second battery electrode not exhibiting distinct phase transitions during a charge-discharge cycle. |
