High voltage power distribution
The distribution of electrical energy in electric and hybrid vehicles represents a major challenge in the design and construction of distribution systems, especially in terms of safety and shielding. This is due to the extremely high and potentially fatal currents that are generated when the vehicle is in use. Consequently, the systems not only have to be perfectly shielded to prevent interference with the complex on-board electronics, but also have to avoid delivering electric shocks in the event of an accident.
