A contactor assembly is provided for a battery module of an electric work vehicle comprising a battery management system. The battery module is configured to be charged and discharged via a first circuit. The first circuit comprises the contactor assembly, the contactor assembly comprising a first contactor in series with a second contactor. Each of the first contactor and the second contactor is configured to have a higher resistance to welding for a switching current flowing in a preferred direction than in a nonpreferred direction. The first contactor and the second contactor have opposite preferred directions. In response to an instruction to switch the contactor assembly, the battery management system is configured to determine whether the switching current direction is in the first direction or in the second direction, and to break or complete the first circuit with the contactor having a preferred direction in the switching current direction.
