About the team

The electronics team is a diverse team with different and complementary competencies. We are responsible for all electronic systems, both on and off the car. This includes everything from the high voltage system that powers the car, to the low voltage system used for safety systems, data acquisition and other functions. 

During the fall semester we have been working on designing the electrical systems for our 2026 car, and now it is time to make it become real! Being part of the electronics team means being part of a close knit group of students working towards the same goal, making the best racecar we can. We also like to have fun together by doing various activities throughout the whole year, join the electronics team to take part yourself!

Wire Harness

The wire harness is used to connect all the electrical systems together. Building the wire harness includes planning the wire routing, making connectors and installing the harness on the real racecar . Some additional tasks are electrical testing, troubleshooting and soldering. If you are a meticulous person and want to be part of a bigger project, this is the perfect role for you!

The following competencies are highly meritorious, but not necessary for the role:

• Meticulous and structured 
• Some general electronics knowledge
• Soldering experience

Time required

The time expected for a team member to contribute each week is approximately 10 – 12h. The time is divided into workshops on Mondays and Wednesdays between  17:15 – 21:00, a weekly lunch meeting on Fridays and any additional time spent at other times. No working time is expected to be spent during exam periods!
