Install
Installation procedure is the reverse of removal, except for the following:
-
Before installing the charge port busbar connector to the HV header at the
ancillary bay:
- Clean the HV connector contact surface at the ancillary bay and the busbar HV connector contact surface of residual Penetrox.
- Apply 2 drops of Penetrox to either side of the hole on both leads of the HV header. Spread evenly to verify the contact surface is fully covered.
-
After installing the charge
port busbar connector to the HV header at the ancillary bay, use the Hioki
resistance meter to measure the resistance between the charge port busbar
lead and the ancillary bay HV header bolt head. Also perform this test on the
other lead and bolt head.
NoteThe acceptable resistance is between 0.050 mΩ (50 μΩ) and 0.195 mΩ (195 μΩ). If the measured resistance is above 0.195 mΩ (195 μΩ), there is too much resistance in the High Voltage joint. Remove the fastener, clean areas with isopropyl alcohol, install fastener back and test again, as appropriate.NoteIf the resistance is lower than 0.050 mΩ (50 μΩ), reposition the probes and measure again. If after 4 attempts the resistance is consistently lower than 0.050 mΩ (50 μΩ), the test has passed.
