Abstract:
Provided is a layout structure for electronic-control-system elements for an electric vehicle, said layout structure making it possible to improve the protection performance of a harness that electrically connects a converter and junction box in a vehicle to each other. Said layout structure is provided with the following: a first DC-to-DC converter (35) that converts the voltage of power inputted to a first accessory battery (32) in the vehicle; a junction box (34) that uses a relay circuit to supply/interrupt/distribute current; a converter-cooling fan (71) that blows cooling air at the first DC-to-DC converter (35); a fan duct (73) that has a curved section (73a) in the middle thereof that is curved towards the top of the vehicle, one end of said fan duct (73) being connected to a discharge port (71b) for the converter-cooling fan (71) and the other end of the fan duct (73) being connected to a cooling-air inlet (35a) for the first DC-to-DC converter (35); and a power-line harness (Y) that electrically connects the first DC-to-DC converter (35) and the junction box (34) to each other and is routed so as to pass under the curved section (73a) of the fan duct (73).
