Power Wiring
When running wiring for the vehicle care must be taken for proper
wire routing. Power wiring should be of proper sizing and ran as
low in the framework of the vehicle as practical. Lengths of power
wire runs need to be kept short and pairs of wires from common
circuits should be grouped together to reduce EMC emissions.
Secure all power wiring to the vehicle framework.
Motor Phase Wiring
The three phase wires should be kept close to the same length
and kept together as they run from the motor to the controller. For
optimum reliability don’t lay wire across other connections on
the controller. Low current wires should not be run alongside the
motor wiring or any high current wiring.
***Never swap motor phase wiring unless key is o and
vehicle is not moving***
Wiring and battery health in an electric vehicle are very important
and overlooked during performance upgrades. Wiring size
is important for safety and proper operation of the vehicle.

overheat. Wires should be crimped with proper sized terminals and
tools to provide a clean low resistance connection.
