Simplified Explanation of How Electric Cars Work

In this video, I walk though an EV Display Board which has all of the parts of an Electric Vehicle and talked about the parts them selves and showed the parts working from start to finish. This demonstration gives the simplified explanation of how Electric Cars Work.

I know I said a few thing off like one spot I said milli amp volts when I meant to say just mili volt drop. My video editor won't allow me to change the audio. But you get the basic picture of how an electric car will work.

what size fuse and positive wire should i use.

[ElectricFormula]

@deputy1040 There are charts on line to know for sure what size of wire to use. So use the online charts to look up how much current each gauge of wire can handle and size it appropriately to what the controller can do. Going bigger doesn't hurt anything, better to be in a safe limit compared to the top end of a gauge of wire. For the fuse, that depends on the controller, find out the current and get the appropriate size.

Nicely done! Have you created a schematic for this demo?

[ElectricFormula]

@groganzolla1 I don't have a schematic, but I could put one together. There wouldn't be much too it since this one is just a basic setup. I'll see if I can make a quick one and respond with that for you all.

@groganzolla1 I've added another video on the schematic of the EV Display Board.

Super Cool Dude, I realize that the motor that You used in this video was just representative of a motor for the actual electric vehicle that would be in actual use, but I'm wondering about the motor in this video. Is it a three phase motor or some thing?  I'm glad I subscribed.

@akai454 This display model is an DC series system. Everything would be the same for an AC system except for the controller and the motor. You use the same batteries, fuses, switches, contractors, etc. The controller of an AC system uses the DC power from the batteries and converts it to a 3 phase AC output. So what I covered in this display works for both AC and DC systems.

what about the powered brakes, steering, stereo, A/C?

This is really helpful, thank you

[deputy1040]

@ElectricFormula Thank you for responding back to me. ur video has helped me out alot, keep up the good work.

[ilililhy1]

keep going,don`t stop now, EXPAND,stay on the right path. Focus.

[ken25taylor]

definitely helpful
