Which outcome occurs when thermal runaway initiates in a multi-cell lithium-ion battery pack's monitoring circuit?

💡 Explanation

Thermal runaway causes rapid heating in a single cell, initiating a chain-reaction of failures, because heat spreads via conduction. Therefore, 'Cascade failures within affected modules' occur, rather than uniform effects because the battery management system loses control.
