Electrical Powertrain Damage: Difference between revisions

Revision as of 13:26, 10 March 2025

A vehicle's electrical powertrain subsystem consists of electrical components, such as batteries , pantographs and traction motors .

Damage to such a powertrain subsystem can occur from collisions , but it is much more severe when caused by overloading electrical systems with excessive current , premature reverser operation and traction motor overspeeding .

High electrical powertrain damage can be catastrophic, potentially fully immobilizing the vehicle and setting it on fire.
