A circuit, system, machine-readable storage medium and method for detecting the leakage impedance in a voltage source is described. The method for identifying a presence of a leakage path in a multi-cell floating voltage source may include supplying a current to a node of the floating voltage source and sampling the voltage of the floating voltage source using a pair of amplifiers connecting in inverting configurations. The method may include sampling a reference ground potential using a reference amplifier connected in an inverting configuration. Each of the amplifiers may output an output signal. The method may include adjusting the current supplied to the node of the floating voltage source and resampling the voltage of the floating voltage source and the reference ground potential. The value of the leakage impedance may be calculated using the sampled and resampled values. The measurements may be performed independent of the battery voltage.
