ENGINEERING DETAIL

What belongs in this block

Battery input → defined protection / disconnect functions → load branches

Operating envelope: Minimum and maximum pack voltage under load; continuous current; peak current and duration; expected transients.
Reverse polarity and inrush: Define reverse-connection exposure and load capacitance/startup. Reverse polarity, reverse current and transient suppression are distinct requirements.
Disconnect and service: Specify intended load interruption and whether service mating occurs energized. A connector is not assumed suitable for breaking a live DC load.
Source boundary: This is a component requirement brief for protection and switching. Battery packs, BMS and charging are reviewed in the energy-storage module for the selected equipment.
