Watch as an entire 2011 Nissan LEAF battery is assembled starting with an empty battery case and ending with a fully functional battery. This is one of the most controversial electric vehicle battery designs due to the lack of an active cooling system. See the parts that affect the battery cooling ability

Thank you to GreenTec Auto Hybrid Batteries for providing the battery for this video. Visit [ Ссылка ] for your hybrid and EV battery needs.

CORRECTION:
When removing the service disconnect lever, the battery is divided into two 180 Volt sections. The service disconnect lever separates the rear module stack from the front side stacks.

ABOUT US:
Weber State University (WSU) - Department of Automotive Technology - Ardell Brown Technology Wing - Transmission Lab. This episode covers the reassembly of the 24kWh 360.0 volt 60 Ah battery from a 2011 Nissan LEAF EV. The components and their operation are similar to many other electric vehicles.

WSU is a leader in Hybrid and Electric Vehicle education. This topic is taught as part of our 4-year bachelor's degree program. For information on joining the Weber Automotive program, visit: [ Ссылка ]

This video was created and edited by Professor John D. Kelly at WSU. For a full biography, see [ Ссылка ]

ADDITIONAL TRAINING FOR YOU
Join us for hybrid and electric vehicle training with two online courses and in a 5-day on-campus boot camp with Professor John D. Kelly. See [ Ссылка ]
