Device for disabling power under certain safety conditions

摘要

Electrical systems (20), such as an electric propulsion system for a vehicle (100) for example, often have electric power available for components of the system (20) when non-operating conditions occur, such as turning off the vehicle key switch (38). An electronic control circuit (10) is provided for controllably interrupting power flow to the system (20) and disabling the system (20) in response to any of a plurality of non-operating conditions.
