Abstract: A method for reactivation of an electrical system of a vehicle comprising a first electrical system operating at a first lower voltage and a second electrical system operating at a second higher voltage, comprising: detecting a fault or a crash situation in the second electrical system; disconnecting a power source of the second electrical system; determining the fault of the second electrical system is no longer present or that the crash situation is resolved; reconnecting the power source to the second electrical system and increasing the voltage of the second electrical system from zero to an intermediate voltage lower than the second voltage; and if a detected current in the second electrical system is higher than a current threshold value; or if a detected voltage of the first electrical system is higher than a voltage threshold value; reducing the voltage of the second electrical system to zero.

Abstract: A mounting base can comprise: a group of mounting areas, each mounting area of the group of mounting areas comprising: a respective mechanical connector member of a group of respective mechanical connector members for attaching to a complementary mechanical connector member on each direct-current to direct-current (DC/DC) converter unit of the group of DC/DC converter units, and a respective electrical connector of a group of respective electrical connectors for attaching to a complementary electrical connector on each DC/DC converter unit of the group of DC/DC converter units, a group of electrical conductors attached to the group of respective electrical connectors in each mounting area, and attached to a main connector on the mounting base for connecting to a high-voltage (HV) connector of a main HV supply, and a cooling channel extending in heat conducting contact with the group of mounting areas.
