Abstract

A boost converter for a hybrid vehicle includes an inductor, a bus bar, an insulator, a temperature sensor, and a wire. The bus bar is configured to connect the inductor to a power source. The insulator is disposed over the bus bar and defines an array of orifices. The temperature sensor is configured to measure a temperature of the inductor. The wire is connected to the temperature sensor. The wire is weaved through the array of orifices such that the wire positionally alternates between opposing external sides of the insulator.
