Leaf Lithium battery pack/box build basic questions
I am building the battery pack and want to confirm a few things first.
1. do the modules need any plates between them? I have the factory end plates (4 of them), and I have thin strips that seem to be placed between some modules based on pics I have seen on here. But I don't see the need for them. 2. I assume the modules naturally stack together with opposing terminals near each other (so that I can connect the small bus bars from positive to negative). 3. Does anyone have a diagram or pic of how to run the bus bars and the wiring for the BMS? I want to make sure I am hooking that part up right!!! Thanks |

Attached is a basic drawing of a 7 module 14S pack. This wiring applies to the Ali Express BMS on the leaf modules. It was originally drawn for the BMS from EV Battery Center before Nick passed away. I have others for a ZEVA BMS.
No plates need between modules. What cart is this going into? Pics are of an assembled pack |

Wow, that looks nice PingEye! Thanks about clarifying about the plates between the modules. I see, even in the pictures above, three studs on the modules; two of which are being used to hold the wire clamps. I thought those were part of some brace but I suppose they are built onto some of the batteries? Mine is going into an EzGo. I suppose you have to make all of the wiring including the larger cables? Thanks again.
