HVIL, or high-voltage interlock loop, is a safety feature of hybrid and all-electric vehicles that protects people during the assembly, repair, maintenance and operation of a vehicle. The HVIL system is in place to protect those who may come into contact with high-voltage components at any stage of the electric vehicle lifecycle. HVIL acts as a circuit breaker that sends an alert or trouble code to the driver if a high-voltage connection becomes loose, disconnected or damaged during the vehicle’s operation. It also helps protect a vehicle’s driver and passengers in the event of an accident.
