ESF 101 - A GUIDE
SYNOPSE
For most Formula Student competitions each team must submit an Electrical System Form (ESF). This document describes the electrical system of the team's car as well as the safety measures implemented. The ESF not only saves time during the electrical inspection at the competition, but also provides early feedback to the team prior to the competition. In this presentation, the ESF will be presented from a reviewer's perspective, along with tips for quick and efficient documentation. In addition, there will be a presentation of best practices and answers to the most frequently asked questions.
