standards needed to provide service on advanced transportation
vehicles. The groups working through these grants have
put in a ton of effort and have assembled several resources to
help support their efforts.
SYSTEMS
As mentioned earlier, although the electrified platforms present
complexities, service professionals looking to learn more
about alternative propulsion can overcome them by applying
the same strategies used to understand the complex systems
that came before them. BEVs typically possess a high-voltage
energy storage system (ESS), a low voltage system that is used
to run the various controllers populating the vehicle, a DC-DC
converter that is used in lieu of an alternator to maintain the 12V
system, traction motor(s) used to propel the vehicle and a few
thermal management systems designed to keep systems running
efficiently. (Figure 2) On top of that the vehicle has suspension,
steering, tires and brakes that will require periodic maintenance.
Breaking the systems down further you'll find on-board chargers
used to convert AC Mains and HV DC infrastructure power
sources to replenish the vehicle's ESS. (Figure 3) You will likely
find that these vehicles will have multiple communications networks
with a lot of the diagnostics being carried out using highly
capable scan tools. (Figure 1)
CERTIFICATION, TOOLING, AND EQUIPMENT
The high voltage potential found on hybrids and BEVs in Europe
have resulted in credential requirements in order to perform
certain services on such vehicles. And although that doesn't really
exist here in the states, it might someday. According to one of
my colleagues, Daniel Brown (no relation) who is an expert in
HEVs and BEVs and is a technical training manager for Lucas
Nuelle, shared with me that the Institute for the Motor Industry
- IMI based in the United Kingdom has estimated that less
