Electric vehicle safeguarding device, has detection mechanism for determining humidity and activating separators with detected humidity so as to electrically separate electrical lines of automotive battery

摘要

The device has separators (6a, 6b) for electrical separation of electrical lines of an automotive battery (2) i.e. lithium ion battery, where each electrical line is in connection of the battery with an electrical distribution (8) within an electric vehicle. A detection mechanism i.e. humidity sensor such as rain sensor (4a) and water sensor (4b), determines humidity and activates the separators with the detected humidity so as to electrically separate the electrical lines. The detection mechanism is arranged at the automotive battery. An independent claim is also included for a method for electrically safeguarding an electric vehicle.
