| Rule # | Description | Status |
|---|---|---|
| (Sec 7.15) | If an electrical system operates at a voltage greater than what the engine charging system provides, some additional pre-competition requirements are to be met. The team must provide the following to the rules chair by the last Friday in March: (Sec 7.15) | Not Started |
| (Sec 7.15.1) | Electrical system schematic (Sec 7.15.1) | Not Started |
| (Sec 7.15.1.1) | Schematic only needs to include the isolated higher voltage circuit (Sec 7.15.1.1) | Not Started |
| (Sec 7.15.1.2) | The schematic must include all system components (controllers, generators, motors, displays, contactors, circuit protection. etc) (Sec 7.15.1.2) | Not Started |
| (Sec 7.15.2) | Component list with factory specified voltage ratings (Sec 7.15.2) | Not Started |
| (Sec 7.15.3) | If not received by the above stated date, the team will not be eligible for "First Time Through" award for tech inspections. (Sec 7.15.3) | Not Started |
| (Sec 7.15.3.1) | Teams will not be able to complete tech inspections without delivering a completed schematic. (Sec 7.15.3.1) | Not Started |
| (Sec 7.15.4) | Any changes after the due date must be submitted to the person named above, immediately. (Sec 7.15.4) | Not Started |
| (Sec 7.18.5) | All circuits carrying potential above battery voltage must be sheathed with high visibility orange covering. (Sec 7.18.5) | Not Started |
| (Sec 7.18.5.1) | Cable must be marked with gauge, temperature rating, and insulation rating (voltage) (Sec 7.18.5.1) | Not Started |
| (Sec 7.18.6) | Cables must not be damaged. Any cuts, burn marks, or rubs that have damaged the conductor or insulation require that the cable be replaced (Sec 7.18.6) | Not Started |
| (Sec 7.22) | A lamp must be incorporated which is illuminated whenever circuits carrying potential above battery voltage are energized. (Sec 7.22) | Not Started |
| (Sec 7.22.1) | This lamp must be part of the circuit itself. (Sec 7.22.1) | Not Started |
| (Sec 7.22.2) | Lamp should be labeled in a way that makes its function clear, and should be located such that it can be seen from the operator station (Sec 7.22.2) | Not Started |
| (Sec 7.23) | Vehicle must contain a method/procedure to reach a zero-energy state. (Sec 7.23) | Not Started |
