  27. DISCHARGE TIMES

  28. This comment was posted on a popular fire website, on one of the extrication forums. It clearly shows how much misinformation is floating around. Following the simple 5-step shut-down procedures will render the hybrid as safe. EXTRICATON TRAINING • “As a Firefighter for a small City I have been told about a potential hazard to owners of Hybrid cars. As it currently stands in most small cities and towns with Volunteer Fire Departments when a hybrid vehicle is involved in an accident, emergency crews (Firefighters, EMS, Police) are not allowed to touch or put water on a hybrid vehicle until all power has been "disabled" by an authorized person” (I.E. Electrician).

  29. HIGH VOLTAGE CABLES

  30. HIGH VOLTAGE CABLES

  31. HIGH VOLTAGE SYSTEM

  32. HIGH VOLTAGE SYSTEM What happens if I accidentally cut through the orange cable? VIDEO

  33. CUT ZONES

  34. EXTRICATON TRAINING • Hybrid Myths • Rescue personnel have been electrocuted by cutting into Hybrids • False… There have been no recorded injuries to firefighters • If you cut an Orange Wire you will die. • False – Protected by ground faults • Remember: • High Voltage Cables are typically orange in color, but some of the Micro hybrids with voltages under 60 Volts, may be colored blue. • The cables run from the high voltage battery pack in the rear of the vehicle to the engine compartment. The cables are typically routed close to the center of the vehicle, under the floor of the vehicle. The orange cables may be visible, or may be covered with a protective plastic cover. • Inside the orange cable is a ground fault system comprised of a steel braided cable that automatically shuts down the high voltage if the cable is compromised in any way. • The orange cable should be avoided whenever possible, but the high voltage system is designed to shut down if the cable is accidentally cut.

  35. EXTRICATON TRAINING • There are no safety devises to protect rescue personnel. • False – Ground faults throughout the vehicles and relays • Batteries are always live after an accident. • Treat as true! – Yet most Hybrid batteries have shear devises that break from the force of an accident. There is no way to check these, so follow the 5 safety step protocol. • After the battery is disconnected I need to wait at least 15 minutes before proceeding. - False • Once the battery is disconnected and the key is turned off, all of the high voltage is restricted to within the high voltage battery case in the vehicle. The capacitors may take up to a minute to discharge, but they are also contained within a metal box under the hood. • Remember: The greatest chance of electrical hazard will occur if you drive a metal object through the hood or headlight. DON’T DRIVE A PENETRATING NOZZLE THOUGH THESE AREAS!

  36. EXTRICATON TRAINING • New Car Construction • High Strength Steel • Tempered Glass • Magnezium

  37. EXTRICATON TRAINING 1980 2000 2010

  38. Extrication

  39. Extrication

  40. EXTRICATON TRAINING High Strength Steel, increases safety in collisions, and lowers carbon footprint as required by recent laws. It is also part of the required 35 MPG requirement. VIDEO

  41. EXTRICATON TRAINING • Glass • Due to respiratory problems, injuries to firefighters, and patients, and damage to the structural integrity of cars, it is now recommended that you leave the glass in place unless it must be removed. VIDEO

  42. EXTRICATON TRAINING

  43. EXTRICATON TRAINING • Extrication Strategy and Tactics • 5 Step Safety Protocol • Remove hood from hinge side • Try before you pry • Check all doors to determine if you can remove the patient(s) before using cutting and prying tools. If spinal precautions are needed start removing trim see determine where you are going to cut. • Peel and Peek • Remove all trim before cutting any areas. • Forget about Low – High – High

  44. EXTRICATON TRAINING PEEL AND PEEK AIR BAG

  45. EXTRICATON TRAINING PEEL AND PEEK DON’T CUT THIS AIR BAG

  46. EXTRICATON TRAINING DASH LIFT

  47. Extrication B Pillar Rip/Noah’s Ark

  48. EXTRICATON TRAINING 5th DOOR

  49. EXTRICATON TRAINING Roof Removal – This is the most used extrication technique nationally. It is the only way to efficiently extricate a patient with inline stabilization. It should be used, if practical, on all suspected spinal and head injuries. DON”T CORK SCREW THE PATIENT !

  50. EXTRICATON TRAINING • Locations for cuts after “peel and peek”
