Warning IconA warning icon, calling your attention to a possibly risky situation
Warning
Do not place anything on top of the HV battery other than the high voltage “Danger” placard. The high voltage “Danger” placard is placed on top of the HV battery to warn others of the potential exposure to high voltage.
Warning IconA warning icon, calling your attention to a possibly risky situation
Warning
This procedure can only be performed in designated HV battery repair areas.
Warning IconA warning icon, calling your attention to a possibly risky situation
Warning
Only technicians who have been certified to remove HV battery switches and fuses and have completed all required certification courses (if applicable) or, in EMEA, technicians who have successfully completed the training course HV Battery Fuse Remove and Replace ILT - EMEA 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 any time a high voltage cable is handled. Refer to TN-15-92-003, “High Voltage Awareness Care Points” for additional safety information.
Warning IconA warning icon, calling your attention to a possibly risky situation
Warning
Proper personal protective equipment (PPE) is required to perform this procedure:
  • High voltage insulating gloves
  • Leather glove protectors
  • High voltage glove tester
  • Safety glasses
  • Electrical hazard rated safety shoes
Warning IconA warning icon, calling your attention to a possibly risky situation
Warning
Make sure that the HV gloves are not expired.
  • NA: HV gloves can be used up to 12 months after the testing date printed on the glove, but only 6 months after first use even if the gloves are still within the 12 month period. After either 12 months from the printed date or 6 months after first use, the gloves must be replaced with new gloves or recertified using a Tesla approved vendor. Gloves must also be recertified after use without outer protection gloves. An air leak test is not sufficient.
  • EMEA: Class 0 (1000V) High Voltage gloves have no expiration date and may be used if they pass the pre-use assessment and the periodic inspection.
  • APAC: Follow the expiration date stated by the HV glove manufacturer, and:
    • China only: Test the gloves every 6 months according to GB/T 17622.

Warning IconA warning icon, calling your attention to a possibly risky situation
Warning
Obey these safe work practices while performing this procedure:
  • Do not wear headphones.
  • No loud music in HV battery repair areas.
  • Do not perform this procedure alone. Always have a certified assistant on hand, and alert the on-site manager that you will be performing this procedure.
  • Always use 2 people to lift heavy equipment.
  • Absolutely no horseplay.
  • Avoid cluttering the battery rework area. Only tool carts that have tools that are needed for this procedure should be allowed in the battery rework area. Maintain tools and consumables in appropriate cabinets.
  • Label all secondary chemical containers.
  • Dispose of hazardous waste (such as adhesive, coolant, and other chemicals) in appropriate bins or containers.

Discharge

Informational PurposesAn informational icon, calling your attention
Note
The steps of this procedure are mostly touch time, and can be performed by the Service Advisors/Front of House team as well as Service Technicians.
Warning IconA warning icon, calling your attention to a possibly risky situation
CAUTION
If an HV Battery is to be shipped, such as returning a battery to MRB for refurbishment, the battery must have an SOC of less than 50% for land transport, or an SOC of less than 30% for air transport. If the SOC is greater than these values, the HV battery must be discharged to the acceptable values before the battery can be shipped.
  1. Identify the vehicle SOC.
    • If the SOC is less than the specified values, proceed with removal. See GUID-44C7D42A-95BA-407E-B1BF-16EDFD3A50DA.html.
    • If the SOC is greater than the specified values, lower all of the vehicle windows and turn on the climate control system to maximum defrost. This setting will discharge the battery by approximately 10% SOC every hour.
  2. Move the vehicle to a location where it can safely continue to discharge the battery unattended.
  3. Identify the vehicle SOC every half-hour.
  4. When the SOC is below 50% for land transport, or below 30% for air transport, turn off the climate control system, raise the windows, and then move the vehicle to the service bay.

Preparation
