Risk


Electric Shock: The risk of electric shock is possible when
working with a charging system.
System Component Damage: As power is being applied and
the charging system is running, the risk of overheating,
voltage/current spikes, and incorrect connections are possible.
Mitigation



Testing and Simulation: To prevent component damage and
ensure proper design, the system will be modeled to test for
expected results.
Low Volt System: With the 16V – 42V scaled down system,
the risk a shock is reduced.
Smart and Safe: By knowing how to be safe and building the
system with human/component safety in mind will aid in
avoiding risk.
