[9]
On the other hand, it is connected through these BMS (Battery management system), and contacts emitter each one of the positive electrode terminal and a negative terminal, which is, the power supply be at least only either on one of the positive electrode terminal and the negative terminal caused to be supplied to the contactor in unison block therefore, there is a problem that only a simple or more of the terminal, the contactor is off unnecessary (off) can be.
[10]
In addition, the positive electrode terminal and the negative terminal of the contactor which is connected to the positive terminal and the negative terminal of the BMS (Battery management system) is by using only one of the connector, even when simply an error occurs in the connector and the contactor is not necessary to off ( there is a problem that can be Off).
[11]
In addition, because of a problem with contactor is to be turned off unnecessarily (Off) as described above, the running electric car which can be stopped by a sudden loss of power that is still of such a sudden vehicle is lead to the vehicle contact accident or overturn It may have had that problem.
