5.2 High-voltage orange cabling
The high-voltage cabling is orange, per Society of Automotive Engineers (SAE) standards. Cables run under the floor of the
vehicle and connect the high-voltage battery to the HPCU, Motor, LDC, Inverter, A/C compressor and other high-voltage
components located towards the front of the vehicle.
The presence of orange cables under the hood, in the under-floor battery compartment, or HV cables under the car, identifies
the vehicle as an electric vehicle.
CAUTION
•
Never cut or disconnect the high-voltage orange cabling and connectors without first disabling the HV system
(refer to page 7).
•
Exposed cables or wires may be visible inside or outside the vehicle. Never touch the metal chassis wires, cables,
connectors, or any electric components before disabling the system, and; or shorted to the vehicle chassis.
Failure to follow these instructions will lead to serious bodily injury or death by electrical shock.
