Preface
BYD's power leakage incident is getting bigger and bigger!
Brother Deng, who drove an online car-hailing car in Xinyu, Jiangxi, bought a new energy vehicle for about 20 days, and was suspected of being electrocuted in the middle of driving, and he is still in the ICU, and his life may be in danger at any time! This incident can surprise everyone.
What's going on? New energy vehicles are a hot topic in the automotive industry today, but now they are prohibitive.
What is the possibility of leakage of new energy electric vehicles?
Things are restored
Brother Deng, who is 51 years old from Xinyu, Jiangxi Province, originally wanted to earn some money to subsidize his family.
Finally, in mid-April this year, Brother Deng bought a new energy vehicle at a well-known local BYD store, ready to be used to run online car-hailing.
But no one expected that just a month after buying the car, on the way to pick up and drop off passengers, the car suddenly trembled, as if it had been shocked.
The dash cam showed that after Mr. Deng discovered the abnormality of the car, he subconsciously said "the power has run, the power has run", and then immediately stopped the car and tried to unbuckle the seat belt.
When the passenger heard Mr. Deng's shout, he quickly ran out of the car when he learned that it might be a power leak.
But in the record, the owner of the car, Mr. Deng, did not have such good luck. He frantically tried to unbuckle his seatbelt, but to no avail. Then Brother Deng called for help outside in horror, and finally with the help of passers-by next to him, after removing the seat belt of the car, Mr. Deng was immediately sent to the hospital.
However, due to the serious development of his condition, he was admitted to the intensive care unit. More than a week after the incident, Brother Deng is still not out of danger of life, which is really worrying.
At the same time, the diagnosis of the hospital showed that Brother Deng had indeed suffered an electric shock, and the owner's daughter also said that his father had blisters on his body after being sent to the hospital. This also appears to be a manifestation of electrical injury.
Faced with the huge cost of treatment, Mr. Deng's daughter couldn't afford to pay it back, so she chose to expose the development of the matter on the Internet, hoping to get justice for her father.
With the relevant reports of the media, this matter has also been on the hot search, perhaps in the face of public opinion pressure, BYD Company also reacted urgently.
In the face of doubts, BYD's public relations staff also responded, and said: It is preliminarily ruled out that the vehicle leakage caused the owner to become ill, and it is not ruled out that the owner suddenly suffered a cerebral hemorrhage that caused numbness in his hands and feet, and mistakenly thought that he was electrocuted.
And after Mr. Deng was taken to the hospital, the car had also been driven away by the family normally. The relevant personnel of the 4S store also said that they have been cooperating with the investigation of related matters, and have also inspected the vehicle, and have never given up on dealing with it.
In the face of this incident, the final question is back, will new energy vehicles leak? How likely is it that an electric vehicle will leak?
Some netizens believe that there are two kinds of electricity in the car, which are low-voltage 24V and high-voltage 400V or 800V. And the safe voltage of the human body is 36V. Therefore, netizens speculated that if it was really a tram leakage, the person would either be nothing serious or die on the spot.
As soon as this remark came out, many netizens agreed, the high voltage of electric vehicles is between 400V and 800V, and the current is also very large.
Is there a possibility that the train will leak electricity?
National mandatory standard GB 18384-2020 "Safety Requirements for Electric Vehicles". There are strict requirements for high-voltage safety, which require mandatory inspection before a new car is launched.
In addition, the power battery pack is equipped with leakage protection as standard, which will be disconnected in the event of leakage, which is about the same speed as the ejection airbag.
Since this is an electrical and electronic function, it also needs to meet ISO26262 standards. In other words, it is important to make sure that this function is working properly, and if it is not, it must be redundant or warned. After reporting the fault code, the fault should also be uploaded to the national new energy monitoring platform, and the information cycle is 1 time in 1 second.
In other words, if there is really a car leaking electricity due to various coincidences, it will definitely leave a record on the car side, BYD's cloud, and the cloud of the national monitoring platform, and there is no possibility of "leakage but no traces left".
In this case, BYD made it clear that "there is no abnormality in leakage monitoring", that is, there is no problem with the vehicle end and the cloud. If BYD lies, then it will be enough to record it with the national monitoring platform.
BYD said it was willing to actively cooperate with relevant departments to conduct identification and investigation, that is, it would cooperate with the control record. The fault code record must be the same, because no one would tell such a low-level lie.
Moreover, in the past collision accidents of new energy vehicles, I have not heard of news reports of electric leakage and electric shock. In the event of such a big accident, thousands of collisions will not cause leakage, so it is unlikely that leakage will occur during the use of positive differences.
In the development of new energy vehicles, the development of the mainland as the world's first, inevitably some people will deliberately smear, we must believe in the country's regulations, I believe that the relevant departments will be our public reasonable explanation, but also will give the family a justice!
epilogue
Mr. Tang's experience is truly grieving. There are also many netizens who said that let the bullets fly for a while, maybe the incident will be reversed. But in any case, in the end, I hope that BYD can compensate Mr. Deng for what happened.
I also hope that Mr. Deng can recover as soon as possible and return to normal life.
