Conducting the Secondary InspectionWhen ready to conduct the secondary inspection, complete the following: NEXT • Use thermal imaging tools to identify any residual heat in the battery.• Monitor for signs of thermal runaway or overheating.1. Thermal Checks:Conducting the Secondary InspectionWhen ready to conduct the secondary inspection, complete the following: • Follow EV-specific shutdown procedures:2. High-Voltage System Shutdown:a) Utilize appropriate personal protective equipment (PPE) and tools.b) De-power the vehicle's high-voltage system.c) Test to confirm complete shutdown.d) Place updated signs on the vehicle indicating it is safe for processing.NEXT Conducting the Secondary InspectionWhen ready to conduct the secondary inspection, complete the following: • Record all observations, diagnostic results, and safety measures taken.3. Document Findings:• Include details in the vehicle's inventory or work order for future reference.NEXT Conducting the Secondary InspectionWhen ready to conduct the secondary inspection, complete the following: • Continue to isolate high-risk vehicles for at least 24–48 hours or longer if
thermal runaway risks remain4. Monitoring and Isolation:• Perform regular temperature checks and inspections during this period.
