Question
How to verify hybrid powertrain inverter insulation resistance?
Answer
Use a megohmmeter to measure resistance between inverter terminals and chassis, following HV safety protocols.
Explain
Inverter insulation failure risks electric shock. CHEPQ EV diagnostic kits include a 1000V megohmmeter (compliant with IEC 61557) to test insulation resistance (>100MΩ is normal), with built-in safety interlocks to prevent testing while the HV system is active—critical for technician safety.
