High Voltage Junction Block: Supplies power from the high voltage bat-
tery to the inverter, LDC, air-conditioner compressor, and PTC heater.
On-Board Charger (OBC): External device (low speed) to charge the high
voltage battery.
Inverter: Transforms direct current into alternating current to supply power
to the motor, and transforms alternating current into direct current to
charge the high voltage battery.
LDC: Transforms power from the high voltage battery to low voltage (12 V)
to supply power to the vehicle (DC-DC).
Motor: Uses electrical energy stored inside the high voltage battery to
drive the vehicle (functions like an engine in a standard vehicle).
Reduction Gear : Delivers rotational force of the motor to the tires at
appropriate speeds and torque.
High voltage battery (lithium-
ion polymer) : Stores and sup-
plies power necessary for the
electric vehicle to operate (12 V
auxiliary battery provides power to
the vehicle features such as lights
and wipers).
