Abstract:
1. A cover system for high voltage electric vehicle and hybrid electric vehicle applications comprising; a high voltage connection block; a high voltage device comprising a separate component from the high voltage connection block, but spaced from the connection block a predetermined distance and connected to the connection block by an interface, distal from a top opening of the high voltage connection block and a top opening of the high voltage device creating an exterior space between the interface and the top opening of the high voltage connection block and the top of the high voltage device, the high voltage device being selected from the list including a traction inverter, DCDC converter, and onboard charge module; a first cover, for covering the top opening of the high voltage connection block; a second cover for covering the top opening of the high voltage device, the second cover being relatively planar but having a raised edge along the side proximal the connection block, wherein the first cover partially overlaps the second cover raised edge and the exterior space when installed in a vehicle.
