ABSTRACT:
A battery pack has a plurality of batteries connected in series to provide a high voltage energy source and energy storage. The battery pack has a high voltage receptacle in which a high voltage harness is connected when power is to be distributed or stored. a cover guard prevents inadvertent access to the harness connector. The cover guard has integral therewith an electrical disconnect mechanism and latch mechanism which must be manipulated prior to exposing the harness connector. The disconnect mechanism eliminates the electrical connection of the batteries to a receptacle in which the harness connector is installed. The latch mechanism prevents removal of the cover guard prior to manual disconnection and also prevents reconnection prior to the cover guard being properly positioned.
