Keeping an Electric Car Motor Dry
by dale
When I drive in the rain or cross a creek will that tear up my motor? If I buy an A/C motor would I have to buy an inverter? Hi, Dale - Don't worry about the motor too much, the motor isn't the problem. It's best not to soak it, because long term it will get rusty...but the real need is to keep the controller or inverter dry. If you get the inverter wet, you'll toast a very expensive component! So install it up high, and a lot of people put a flap of something down below the engine bay to keep the water from splashing up. If you buy an AC motor, yes, you'll need an inverter or VFD to go with it. Some suppliers won't even sell one without the other. Regards, Lynne
