MITO EV Auto L5 study plan
MITO EV Auto L5 · Give each week a clear focus.
8 weeks · About 6 hours per week
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
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
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
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
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
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
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
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
