Abstract
Electric vehicles (EVs) have become a symbol of a modern transportation, offering a sustainable alternative to internal combustion engine vehicles. As the EV market keeps growing rapidly, the safety of EV systems has become the focus of research and regulation. Among the various safety concerns, electrical hazards in EVs present unique combination of risks due to their high-voltage systems, advanced battery technologies, and the complexity of their electrical infrastructure. This research paper explores the EVs electrical hazards, focusing on risks such as electric shock, thermal runaway, and fire hazards stemming from battery malfunctions and charging. Understanding these hazards is essential for the development of reliable and secure EV systems that offer safe future of mobility.
Keywords: electric vehicles, electrical hazards, safety measures
