 The Interlock Box connects all the components of the kit.  The low power signals from the [[CAN-View]] relays and other OEM systems signals enter the interlock box.  These signals are then passed on to the charger to enable full power mode and two voltage settings, they can also enable full speed mode for the OEM battery cooling fan [http://autos.groups.yahoo.com/group/eaa-phev/message/688 Y!:Prius OEM battery fan control info].  The high power cables from the OEM battery, grid charge port, charger input, and charger output connect here.  The box contains the high power contractors which switch from charge mode to PHEV mode.  The PHEV battery pack inter-pack fuse or breaker as well as the AC line power circuit breaker are found in this box.  The interlock box has been created as a 10" square plastic utility case, an aluminum box which fits the passenger side cubby compartment, and an aluminum rectangular box mounted near the charger in the universal modular battery box.

-This Relay is used to activate the PFC Chargers High NiMH Voltage setting which will cause the SOC to rise due to [[State Of Charge Drift]].  The Acl (Amps Charge Limit) is monitored to keep from overcharging the NiMH and attempt to leave some headroom for regen power.  The speed is monitored such that the higher SOC target will be used while on the freeway in enable better [[Mixed-mode]] operation.
