– Regenerative braking by the electric rear axle drive also charges the battery - high voltage
The engine has a crankshaft integrated starter generator installed to supply electrical power for
the electric rear axle drive. The crankshaft integrated starter generator does not charge the
battery - high voltage. DC voltage equally flows in and out of the battery - high voltage during
the crankshaft integrated starter generator operation. The crankshaft integrated starter
generator installed on the range extender engine is also a starter motor for the engine.
Wiring Installation
Wiring Harness Information
WARNING
LEVC are not responsible for modifications vehicle converters make to the
vehicles electrical system.
You must make sure:
– Additional electrical installations do not conflict with the vehicles electrical system.
– There are sufficient ground connections for additional electrical equipment.
– Mechanical protective devices are installed (fuses, relays, switches) where necessary.
– The installation obeys local regulations.
WARNING
You must disconnect the 12 Volt and the High Voltage battery before you do
work on the vehicle. Refer to the correct procedure in the workshop manual.
CAUTION
Before you drill into the vehicle, you must examine the Drill Zones,
document. This will help you to avoid damage to other components.
NOTE

General Wiring and Routing
Temperature requirements:
Additional electrical components installed in the interior must
function from -40°C to 75°C and be resistant to a maximum temperature of 85°C. Components
installed in the engine bay or under the vehicle must function from -40°C to 105°C and be
resistant to a maximum temperature of 125°C.
Wiring insulation must be resistant to chemicals used in the vehicle to protect wiring from fluid
spills. For example, petrol, coolant, brake fluid.
Sealed connectors must be used in locations where the electrical system could be exposed to
water. These locations include, inside doors, the engine bay, under the vehicle.
The Wiring harnesses must be attached to to the vehicle every 300 mm or less. This does not
apply to wiring installed in a rigid shield.
