Abstract
An access cover of a high voltage system of an electric vehicle may include a plate and a receiver. The access cover may provide mechanical high voltage access safety to a high voltage system. The high voltage system may include the access cover covering a high voltage circuit disposed within a housing. The receiver of the access cover may couple between a low voltage connector and a low voltage plug. The low voltage connector may provide signals to an interlock circuit via the low voltage plug while the low voltage plug is coupled to the low voltage connector. The low voltage plug may be uncoupled from the low voltage connector before the access cover can be uncoupled from the housing. The interlock circuit may prevent power from being supplied to the high voltage circuit when the low voltage plug is uncoupled from the low voltage connector.
