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.)
"NOTICE: Electric vehicles contain a HVTB (High Voltage Traction Battery) system. Before cutting or welding near the HVTB (High Voltage Traction Battery) , the HVTB (High Voltage Traction Battery) must be removed to avoid heat damage."
Refinish Precautions
"NOTICE: The HVTB (High Voltage Traction Battery) in electric vehicles can be affected and damaged by excessively high temperatures. The temperature in some body shop paint booths can exceed 140°F (60°C ). Therefore, during refinishing operations, the paint booth temperature must set at or below 140°F (60°C ) with a bake time of 45 minutes or less. Temperatures in excess of 140°F (60°C ) or bake durations longer than 45 minutes will require the HVTB (High Voltage Traction Battery) be removed from the vehicle prior to placing in the paint booth."
