An electric system is disclosed. The electric system comprises first and second battery subassemblies, an interrupter, and a system controller. The interrupter connects the first battery subassembly in series to the second battery subassembly via a switched current-limiting path in parallel with a switched non-current-limiting path. The first battery subassembly causes closing of the switched current-limiting path when an energizing trigger is applied to the electric system. The system controller causes closing of the switched non-current-limiting path when energized by the first and second battery subassemblies. The electric system may be integrated in an electric vehicle. A method for energizing an electric system is also disclosed.
A method for energizing an electric system, comprising:
The method of claim 7, wherein the energizing trigger is applied to the first battery module, the method further comprising successively cascading the energizing trigger from the first battery module to the second, third and fourth battery modules.
The method of claim 7, wherein connecting the first battery subassembly to the second battery subassembly is controlled by the first battery module.
Dependencies are inferred from the claim text.
