HEV-2

"Essential AC Electric Theory & Basic Circuits of Hybrid/Electric Drive Vehicles"

This training manual is written for technicians who have a general grasp of DC electricity and digital circuit principles but need an introduction to AC electrical theory as applied to electric vehicle technology.

Chapter 1 provides essential training in AC electric theory in language automotive and truck technicians can understand without the need for a degree in mathematics or electronics. For example: how does AC current flow? How does AC voltage change polarity? What is 1-phase, 2-phase and 3-phase electrical AC? What do capacitors and coils do in AC circuits?

Chapter 2 covers some of the electrical circuits and high power solid-state components that make HEVs a viable alternative to the gasoline engine. Discussion on topics such as DC/DC converters, how they work and how to troubleshoot them. High voltage battery packs and how they are disabled. AC and DC motor drives, regeneration (recharging) during decell and braking bring a basic understanding to the complex technologies of HEVs used by various manufacturers.
