Hybrid And Electric Vehicle Welding Best Practices
When welding on a hybrid vehicle or electric vehicle, follow the same precautions as when welding on a conventional vehicle. In addition, there are precautions to take with the high-voltage battery. As a best practice, disconnect both the 12 V battery and the high-voltage battery service disconnect. (Note: Always disable the high-voltage battery following the vehicle makers repair information and follow all safety precautions.)
Refinish Precautions
"Before placing the vehicle in a paint booth, the High Voltage Traction Battery (HVTB) must be removed to avoid heat damage." (ambient temperature)
