Understanding 2016+ BMS

Because My car gos around the Factory Polaris BMS I never really worked with it or cared to understand how it works. I have few factory Lithium Gems now & I have been forced to have to learn a few thing’s about the Factory stuff. Gabe has been awesome. I have been fortunate to work with him on my Factory cars, and he pointed out some very cool stuff I never knew.


Example What looks like a solid copper bus bar is really 4 individual mount points with a Shunt in between all 4 mount points.

Check out how each corner of the BMS has a Separate Ground & a Separate power - Neg and V- Pos and V+ high voltage vs Low voltage
