The Use of Battery Disconnecting Switches in Electric Vehicles
Modern battery-powered electric vehicles are inherently very reliable and safe. However, even when sophisticated electronic controllers are used it is desirable to have a means of disconnecting the battery in the event of an emergency, such as a vehicle failing to stop or an electrical short circuit.
In many countries, it is mandatory to fit one or more devices to achieve an emergency disconnection of the battery.
