Ensuring high-voltage systems for electric vehicles meet the most stringent safety standards

To make electric vehicles appealing to consumers, battery-charging times need to come down. This can be done with high-voltage charging and interconnection systems, which will also ensure the battery can produce sufficient power to drive the main e-motor. Yet high-voltage systems introduce new challenges for the materials used in the connectors. Engineers need to meet strict design parameters for dielectric strength, creeping, tracking resistance, and the ability to color code various electrical systems.
