Safety first
When an electric vehicle gets into an accident, or if there is a problem with its electrical system, then one thing matters most: to immediately switch off the current flow so that there no longer is any dangerous voltage or current present in the vehicle. This is important to protect both driver and rescue workers. Therefore, Miba is developing fuse systems,
so-called power fuses, for premium-segment vehicles whose electric circuits carry voltages between 800 and 1,000 volts. In the case of an accident or malfunction, they will immediately interrupt the electric circuit. With this innovation, we make an important contribution toward improving the function and enhancing the safety of electric vehicles.
