Hi,
We are trying to find a high voltage disconnect for our eCar. We would like something like the FCI RCS800, but we need a current capacity of about 400A. Does anyone have any ideas?
Thanks,
Jake

Check out TE connectivity, they might have something for you.

Make sure to differentiate between continuous and peak current capacity when looking at your connectors. I doubt that you need a continuous current capacity of 400A. Even with only 100V TS voltage you would need to continuously deliver/source 40kW to/from your motors.
Looking at the efficiency data of the last three FSE events, this seems to be very unlikely.
