Operating Functions

The 14V power module is an electronic device that takes the place of the generator on a traditional vehicle. On a hybrid or electric vehicle the 14V power module converts high voltage (300V) direct current (DC) to low voltage (12V) DC for accessory electrical operation and to charge the 12V battery.

Normally, the 14V power module only supplies 12V DC when the vehicle is under a normal drive cycle. However there are certain instances when the vehicle is being charged through a standard wall socket where the14V power module operation is required to sustain the 12V battery.

The 14V power module is capable of supplying up to 180 Amps of 12V DC.
