Abstract
A method of performing a dielectric voltage-withstand test on a wire harness having a plurality of conductors includes applying voltage simultaneously to a first subset of the conductors. The first subset includes at least two of the conductors. An electrical characteristic of each of the conductors excluded from the first subset of conductors is measured. The applying and measuring steps are repeated for at least one additional subset of the conductors. It is decided whether the wire harness passes the test based upon at least one of the measuring steps.
