Warning:

Only technicians who have been trained in High Voltage Awareness are permitted to perform this procedure. Proper personal protective equipment (PPE) and insulating HV gloves with a minimum rating of class 0 (1000V) must be worn at all times a high voltage cable, busbar, or fitting is handled. Refer to Tech Note TN-15-92-003, "High Voltage Awareness Care Points" for additional safety information.

Install

Caution:

Replace all patchbolts.

Replace all nyloc nuts.

  1. Use an IPA wipe to clean the high voltage mating surfaces of the HV battery terminal, positive busbar, and the HV battery positive contactor.
  2. Tilt the rear of the HV battery positive contactor up, and then install the contactor into the penthouse.
  3. Install the nuts (x3) that attach the HV battery positive contactor into the penthouse.
    Torque 8 Nm
  4. Install a new nut to attach the HV battery positive contactor onto the HV battery terminal, and then mark the nut with a paint pen after it is torqued.
    Torque 9 Nm
  5. Use the Hioki resistance meter to measure the resistance at the HV joint between the HV battery positive contactor and the HV battery terminal.
    Note: The maximum acceptable resistance is 0.110 mΩ (110 μΩ). If the resistance is above this value, escalate a Toolbox session, as appropriate.
    Generic Measurement - Actual busbars and fasteners might appear different
  6. Install a new bolt to attach the HV battery positive contactor onto the positive busbar, and then mark the bolt with a paint pen after it is torqued.
    Torque 9 Nm
  7. Use the Hioki resistance meter to measure the resistance at the HV joint between the HV battery positive contactor and the positive busbar.
    Note: The maximum acceptable resistance is 0.060 mΩ (60 μΩ). If the resistance is above this value, escalate a Toolbox session, as appropriate.
    Generic Measurement - Actual busbars and fasteners might appear different
  8. Install the insulator caps to the HV battery positive contactor.
  9. Connect the electrical harness to the HV battery positive contactor, and power conversion system LV and DC bus HV connectors.
