The safety risks are the same for technicians who work on hybrid electric vehicles (HEVs) or EVs as those who work on conventional gasoline vehicles: True.
What are safety risks?
Safety risks can be defined as an assessment of the risks and occupational hazards associated with the use, operation or maintenance of an equipment or automobile vehicle that is capable of leading to the;
- Harm of a worker (technician).
- Injury of a worker (technician).
- Illness of a worker (technician).
- Death of a worker (technician).
What are hybrid vehicles?
Hybrid electric vehicles (HEVs) or EVs are typically designed and developed with parts or components that operates through the use of high voltage electrical systems ranging from 100 Volts to 600 Volts.
On the other hand, conventional gasoline vehicles are typically designed and developed with parts or components that operates on hydrocarbon such as fuel and motor engine oil. Also, conventional gasoline vehicles do not require the use of high voltage electrical systems and as such poses less threat to technicians, which is in contrast with hybrid electric vehicles (HEVs) or EVs.
This ultimately implies that, the safety risks for technicians who work on hybrid electric vehicles (HEVs) or EVs are the same with those who work on conventional gasoline vehicles due to high voltage electrical systems that are being used in the former.
In conclusion, we can infer and logically deduce that technicians who work on hybrid electric vehicles (HEVs) or EVs are susceptible (vulnerable) to being electrocuted to death when safety risks are not properly adhered to, as well as technicians working on conventional gasoline vehicles.
