SAFETY
Automatic Shutoff
The following safety features allow for automatic shutoff
of the high-voltage (HV) electrical system.
l
High- Voltage Safety Fuses — In the event of a
high-current short circuit, one or more high-voltage
fuses will open, disabling the HV system.
l
High-Voltage Interlock Circuit — If a high-voltage
connector is disconnected, the high- voltage
interlock circuit opens and disables the HV system.
l
Emergency Cut Loop — Whenever the Emergency
Cut Loop is cut, the HV system is disabled.
l
BMS Sensors — The Battery Management System
(BMS) continuously monitors the condition of the
batteries and will disable the HV system if the
battery temperature, state of charge or cell balance
is outside of normal parameters.
l
Inertia Switch – In the event of a collision or severe
jarring of the vehicle, an inertia switch opens and
disables the HV system.
l
VCU - The Vehicle Control Unit (VCU), a
supervisory circuit, constantly monitors the
vehicle’s performance and will disable the HV
system if it detects a potentially dangerous
condition.
