An assembly may be provided that includes a controller configured to be coupled with at least one blower drive that operates a blower motor to cool resistive elements that dissipate electrical power as heat. The controller may be configured to determine whether the electrical power is no longer received by the resistive elements and operate the at least one blower drive to operate the blower motor to cool the resistive elements responsive to the electrical power no longer being received by the resistive elements

A process for manufacturing a base board of a high-speed rail equipment cabin using a composite material is disclosed. The composite material includes: aramid honeycomb, PET foam, 3K twill carbon fiber flame retardant prepreg, unidirectional carbon fiber flame retardant prepreg, glass fiber flame retardant prepreg, aramid flame retardant prepreg, and 300 g/cm.sup.2 single component medium temperature curing blue epoxy adhesive. The process includes manufacturing a base-board main plate (1), a base-board handle (2) and two base-board sliders (3). While installation, the base-board handle (2) is stuck to one side of the base-board main plate (1), and the two base-board sliders (3) are respectively stuck to another two opposite sides of the base-board main plate (1). The weight of the base board made from the composite material is 35%-40% lower than the base board made from the aluminum alloy material, which leads to a good prospect of application.
