Abstract

The present invention relates to a method and apparatus to connect a wiring harness to an electric machine, and provides a high voltage electric power wiring harness for supplying an electric machine, wherein the high voltage electric power wiring harness runs substantially parallel to a frame. Terminal ends of a plurality of wiring cables are staggered in length, height and depth. Terminal ends are coupled to bus bars which project through the frame and fasten to surfaces of a terminal block corresponding in height to the respective heights of the terminal ends of the wire cables. The bus bars mechanically fasten with and electrically connect to conductors of the electric machine.

Description

technical field [0001] The present disclosure relates to a power connector for a power transmission system employing an electric motor. Background technique [0002] Packaging envelopes for circuits that supply power to the electric motor on the vehicle may be restricted. Implementation of bulk electrical systems may be constrained by available packaging space. An example of a bulk circuit is a circuit that conducts high voltage power between an inverter device and a traction motor. Well-known design factors for bulk circuits include length and routing of high power cables based on power loss, inductance and electrical noise generation, temperature management and dissipation, and accessibility for assembly and repair. Contents of the invention [0003] The high voltage electrical harness is connected to an electric motor operating in the vehicle to generate tractive power. The wiring harness includes first, second and third cables having respective longitudinal axes par...
