Electric Car Fire: To avoid incidents of fire in electric cars, there are some common mistakes that people often make. These mistakes can endanger the safety of the vehicle and the battery. It is important to pay attention to avoid the following mistakes:
Use of non-certified charger: Using an unauthorized or non-certified charger may increase the risk of fire. Always use only chargers recommended and certified by the manufacturer.
Overcharging: Overcharging the battery can adversely affect its capacity and life and can cause overheating. Always stop charging at scheduled times or use a smart charging system that controls the charging process automatically.
Not getting the vehicle checked regularly: Not getting regular service and checkups done on electric cars can lead to potential problems, such as battery failure or wiring issues. Regular checkups and maintenance can help identify and fix problems in time.
Battery pack damage: If the battery pack is damaged (such as in an accident), this should not be ignored. A damaged battery pack can cause a fire.
Exposure to moisture and water: Electric vehicles should be kept away from moisture and water as it can cause short-circuits in the battery and electrical system.
Parking the vehicle in high temperatures: Parking the electric car in extreme heat can have a bad effect on the battery and other components. It is better to park the vehicle in shady places in summer.
By taking care of all these aspects, safety in the use of electric cars can be ensured. If you notice any kind of problem, show it immediately to the concerned service center.
