MITO EV Auto L5 study plan

MITO EV Auto L5 · Give each week a clear focus.

8 weeks · About 6 hours per week

Week 1

Automotive & Commercial road transport

  • Map the MITO EV Auto L5 assessment domains to a personal gap list, ranking Automotive and Commercial road transport topics by current confidence

  • Define and write down the core high-voltage safety vocabulary used across Automotive and road transport work, including isolation, equipotential bonding, and live-work rules

  • Sketch the layout of a battery electric passenger car and a battery electric truck side by side, labeling pack, inverter, motor, charger, and thermal circuits

  • Build a 40-term glossary with your own one-line definitions and flag any term you cannot yet define precisely

Your checkpoint

A one-page gap matrix covering Domains 1 and 2 plus a 40-term personal glossary with confidence ratings

Week 2

Automotive

  • Trace energy flow through a battery electric vehicle from charging inlet to wheel torque, writing each conversion step and its losses

  • Compare series, parallel, and series-parallel hybrid architectures and state where each is used in light vehicles

  • Explain the function of the BMS, contactors, pre-charge circuit, and service disconnect in a traction pack

  • Diagnose three written fault scenarios (no-start, reduced power, charging abort) by reasoning from symptoms to likely subsystem

Your checkpoint

A labeled energy-flow diagram for one BEV and one hybrid plus written diagnoses for three fault scenarios

Week 3

Automotive & Commercial road transport

  • Describe safe isolation and lockout procedure for a high-voltage vehicle, including verification of de-energization

  • List the inspection points and legal duties for an electric commercial vehicle before a daily run

  • Compare duty cycles of a city bus, a regional tractor unit, and a last-mile van, and state how each shapes battery sizing and charging strategy

  • Explain regenerative braking limits and how payload and gradient affect energy recovery in heavy vehicles

Your checkpoint

A written pre-work safety checklist for high-voltage work plus a duty-cycle comparison table for three commercial vehicle types

Week 4

Automotive & Commercial road transport

  • Work through range and energy-consumption calculations for a passenger car and a loaded truck using given consumption figures

  • Explain charging standards and connector types at a conceptual level and match them to depot, public, and home use cases

  • Identify the main failure modes of traction batteries and motors and state the early warning signs for each

  • Self-test on Domains 1 and 2 with 30 written questions and record every miss with the underlying concept

Your checkpoint

A scored 30-question self-test on Domains 1 and 2 with a written correction note for each incorrect answer

Week 5

Extractives

  • Map the extractives value chain from exploration through extraction and processing, naming the main equipment classes at each stage

  • Describe the operating environment of surface and underground mining and identify where electrification is being applied

  • Explain the hazards specific to mining sites: dust, confined space, ventilation, ground stability, and heavy mobile plant interaction

  • Compare diesel and electric haulage on ventilation demand, heat, and maintenance burden

Your checkpoint

A one-page extractives value-chain map with electrification opportunities and hazards annotated at each stage

Week 6

Extractives & Drilling, gas and logistics

  • Explain the purpose and basic operation of drilling equipment used in extractives and in gas operations

  • Describe gas handling fundamentals: pressure control, venting, flaring, and leak detection principles

  • Outline logistics planning for a remote site, covering fuel or energy supply, spares, and personnel rotation

  • Identify the safety controls that apply when electrical equipment operates in dust, gas, or explosive atmospheres

Your checkpoint

A written comparison of electrical safety controls for a dusty mine site versus a gas-handling site

Week 7

Drilling, gas and logistics

  • Trace the path of gas from wellhead to processing and name the main pressure and metering stages

  • Explain how electric drives and power supply are used on drilling rigs and in gas logistics, including redundancy needs

  • Analyze two incident scenarios involving ignition risk or loss of power at a remote site and state the control failures

  • Draft the questions you would ask a site manager before introducing electric equipment to a drilling or gas operation

Your checkpoint

A two-scenario incident analysis with identified control failures and a 15-question site-readiness checklist

Week 8

Automotive & Commercial road transport & Extractives & Drilling, gas and logistics

  • Re-test all four domains with a timed 60-question mixed set and score each domain separately

  • Revisit every weak area flagged in weeks 4 and 7 and rewrite the underlying concept in your own words

  • Summarize the cross-cutting themes (high-voltage safety, hazardous atmospheres, duty cycle, logistics) in a single reference sheet

  • Set a final review schedule and list the specific facts you still need to verify before the exam

Your checkpoint

A scored 60-question mixed mock with a domain-by-domain breakdown and a one-page cross-cutting reference sheet
