Depower and re-initialise battery electric vehicles in line with industry best practices and approved procedures.
Identify active high-voltage systems and understand the hazards associated with incorrect handling or exposure.
- High-voltage PPE, including insulated gloves, arc flash protection, and insulating mats.
- Multimeters for live-dead-live testing.
- Service and warning signage, including roof and caution signs.
- Lockable tool storage and glove inflation equipment.
- Confirm the vehicle is powered off and secure the key fob.
- Review technical documentation and vehicle-specific shutdown requirements.
- Disconnect the 12-volt battery and high-voltage service plug.
- Allow sufficient time for capacitor discharge.
- Perform live-dead-live testing to verify system isolation.
- Reverse depowering steps in the correct sequence.
- Reconnect the high-voltage service plug and 12-volt battery.
- Verify system readiness using dashboard indicators.
Use techniques such as the One-Hand Rule and conduct PPE inspections to reduce the risk of electrical shock.
Train teams to work safely with high-voltage systems through an immersive VR experience focused on electric vehicle maintenance, where participants follow precise, step-by-step procedures to depower and re-initialise battery electric vehicles using realistic tools and components, building practical confidence and technical accuracy without exposure to real-world risk.
Working on battery electric vehicles carries significant risk, where mistakes can result in serious injury or loss of life rather than simple downtime.
Participants operate within a realistic maintenance environment and are required to:
- Isolate and depower high-voltage components using approved safety procedures.
- Select and use the correct personal protective equipment and specialized tools.
- Manage simulated fault scenarios that reflect real-world electric vehicle hazards.
- Follow precise sequences to safely re-initialise vehicle systems after maintenance.
- Build practical confidence in high-voltage awareness and controlled system handling.
This high-impact simulation develops the essential skills needed for safe electric vehicle servicing and supports technicians transitioning into EV maintenance roles.
Features:
- Repeat depowering and re-initialisation procedures to strengthen procedural accuracy and confidence.
- Practice using essential safety equipment, including high-voltage gloves and multimeters.
- Apply required safety checks, including correct signage placement and safe equipment handling.
- Modelled from Unit of Competency: AURETH101.
