ABSTRACT

The maintenance connector for the high-voltage system is an electrical coupling point between the contactors and the high-voltage battery. It must always be removed if the high-voltage system is to be worked on. Different manufacturers have different ways to de-energize the high-voltage system. Roadside repairs should only be carried out by qualified personnel and by following all the safety and repair procedures. Pro-moto is long-standing experts in the field of vehicle technical training, specializing in electric vehicles, hybrids and hydrogen-propelled vehicle technologies. The Pro-Assist hybrid app was commissioned to help first responders, recyclers and repairers understand the special and different requirements of hybrid vehicles. Generic information is also supplied in relation to hazard assessment, battery technology and some historical events. The apps are created in collaboration with the Society of Motor Manufacturers and Traders (SMMT) and the industry's leading hybrid and electric vehicle manufacturers.
