A vehicle traction battery assembly is provided which may include a housing, a battery system supported within the housing, and a connector electrically connected with the system and extending through and away from the recessed face into a region normal to the recessed face and adjacent to the ledge
A vehicle traction battery assembly is provided which may include a housing, a battery system supported within the housing, and a connector electrically connected with the system and extending through and away from the recessed face into a region normal to the recessed face and adjacent to the ledge such that the ledge limits travel of objects into the region impacting the lateral end. The lateral end may have a step configuration defined by the ledge and the recessed face. The housing may also include a middle face extending between the ledge face and recessed face, opposing side faces, and a lower face. The connector may be a battery control interface connector, an accessory connector, or a high-voltage connector.

1. A vehicle traction battery assembly comprising: a housing including a lateral end having a step configuration defined by a ledge and a recessed face;a battery system supported within the housing; anda connector electrically connected with the system and extending through and away from the recessed face into a region normal to the recessed face and adjacent to the ledge such that the ledge limits travel of objects into the region impacting the lateral end,wherein the connector is arranged with the housing such that the connector extends past the ledge. 2. The assembly of claim 1, wherein the housing further includes a middle face extending between the ledge and the recessed face, opposing side faces, and a lower face, and wherein the faces further define the region. 3. The assembly of claim 1, wherein the connector is a battery control interface connector, an accessory connector, or a high-voltage connector. 4. The assembly of claim 1, further comprising another connector extending through and away from the recessed face into the region. 5. The assembly of claim 1, wherein the connector is electrically connected to a power electronics module, a DC/DC converter module, or an electric machine. 6. A housing for a high voltage battery comprising: opposing longitudinal side faces;a lower face; anda lateral end defining a recessed face and a ledge face substantially parallel to one another, and a middle face extending therebetween, wherein planes defined by the faces at least partially define a region exterior to the housing and normal to the recessed face and wherein the recessed face defines a first opening for a connector to extend therethrough, into the region, and past the ledge face. 7. The housing of claim 6, wherein the lateral end further defines a first internal cavity sized to receive a battery control module. 8. The housing of claim 7, wherein the housing defines a second internal cavity located adjacent to the first cavity and sized to receive a battery cell array. 9. The housing of claim 6, wherein the first opening is sized for a battery control interface connector to extend therethrough. 10. The housing of claim 6, wherein the recessed face defines a second opening sized for an accessory connector to extend therethrough. 11. The housing of claim 10, wherein the recessed face defines a third opening sized for a high voltage connector to extend therethrough. 12. A traction battery assembly comprising: a battery system;a housing enclosing the system and including an end defining a ledge on an outside of the housing and a recessed face adjacent to the ledge such that the ledge and recessed face have a step configuration; anda connector electrically connected with the system and extending through the recessed face and underneath and past the ledge. 13. The assembly of claim 12, wherein the connector is electrically connected to a power electronics module, a DC/DC converter module, or an electric machine. 14. The assembly of claim 12, wherein the connector is a battery control interface connector, an accessory connector, or a high voltage connector. 15. The assembly of claim 12, further comprising another connector, and wherein the another connector extends through the recessed face and underneath the ledge.
