BATTERY CELL, BATTERY AND ELECTRICAL DEVICE
A battery cell comprises an electrode assembly, a case and an insulating member. The case is used for accommodating the electrode assembly and has a wall portion arranged opposite the electrode assembly in a first direction, the wall portion being provided with a first pressure-relief area. In the first direction, the insulating member is at least partially arranged between the electrode assembly and the wall portion to insulate and isolate the electrode assembly from the wall portion. The insulating member is provided with a second pressure-relief area at the position corresponding to the first pressure-relief area, and the first pressure-relief area and the second pressure-relief area are configured to be open when the battery cell releases pressure.
