Brake Overtravel Switch
Inertia switch:
FSAE rules state that EV cars must have an inertia switch, while IC cars only should have an inertia switch. It's a good safety feature to include and easy to install, so there's little reason to leave it off even if you're an IC team.
You are recommended to get the Sensata Resettable Crash Sensor or equivalent.
Other electrical components:
Wires:
This is a summary of the topic. For more information, see the page on wire.
