Nissan X-Trail e-POWER 2023 Owners Manual
2.6.1. High voltage components
The e-POWER system uses high voltage up to approximately 420 volts. Obey the caution labels attached to the high voltage components.
Never touch high voltage harnesses, their connectors or high voltage parts (electric motor for driving and Lithium ion (Li-ion) battery, etc.). Touching, disassembling, removing or replacing those parts and harnesses can cause severe burns or electric shock that may result in serious injury or death.
The e-POWER system consists of the following high voltage parts.
1. Air conditioner compressor
This compressor is for the air conditioner system in the passenger compartment.
2. DC/DC converter
This converter is for converting Li-ion battery power to 12-volt battery voltage.
3. High voltage harnesses (orange)
These harnesses are high voltage and orange-colored. Be sure not to touch the harnesses or remove the connector on the base of the cable.
4. Inverter, Electric motor for driving and Power generator
a. Inverter (2WD)/Front inverter (4WD)
This device controls various functions related to the e-POWER system. Be careful because it can be hot after driving.
b. Power generator
This generator is for generating electric power. Be careful because it can be hot after driving.
c. Electric motor for driving (2WD)/Front electric motor for driving (4WD)
This motor is for running the vehicle. Be careful because it can be hot after driving.
5. Service plug
This plug is used to cut-off the high voltage when performing maintenance. Never touch this plug.
6. Lithium ion (Li-ion) battery
This battery is charged from the electric power generated by the power generator and/or the regenerative power from the electric motor for driving. The Li-ion battery also supplies the electric power to the electric motor for driving while driving.
7. High voltage junction box
This box is for distributing electric power to high voltage parts.
8. Rear inverter and Rear electric motor for driving (4WD)
This converter is for converting Li-ion battery power to 12-volt battery voltage.
a. Rear inverter
This device controls various functions related to the e-POWER system. Be careful because it can be hot after driving.
b. Rear electric motor for driving
This motor is for running the vehicle. Be careful because it can be hot after driving.
