What Are the Hazards of Pure Electric Vehicles Encountering Water Accumulation?
1 Answers
The following are the hazards of pure electric vehicles encountering water accumulation: Being trapped in the vehicle: The biggest problem for electric vehicles encountering storms and water accumulation is not the issue of electric leakage, but the greatest possibility is that the interior gets soaked, or the driver gets trapped inside the vehicle and cannot get out. Additionally, although the vehicle's battery pack outputs high-voltage direct current of 300 to 600V, current electric vehicles are generally equipped with insulation and electric leakage detection functions. If high-voltage components experience leakage, the management system will directly cut off the voltage output from the battery box. Therefore, the possibility of being 'electrocuted' is relatively small. Component damage: Electric vehicles do not have intake components and all electrical parts are waterproofed. However, land vehicles still need to avoid wading through water because the vehicle frame cannot be completely sealed. Vehicle frames generally have some hollow components with openings, which can accumulate water. After water accumulation, it can corrode the steel. Moreover, the composition of water accumulation on ordinary roads is relatively complex, which may have a corrosive effect on waterproof components, or sand and other hard particles in the water may enter moving parts and scratch them.
