The inverter, also known as motor controller, converts the direct current (DC) coming from your battery into alternating current (AC). The AC then feeds an AC motor and makes it run. A 3-phase inverter wire harness is a special kind of wire harness that can be used to connect your electric vehicle's inverter to the motor.
 

Inverter Wiring Harness with Pass-through Connector

A 3-phase inverter wire harness will come in a variety of different lengths and configurations. Generally speaking, the complete wiring harness consists of the following components:
 
high voltage cable with wide cross sections

1) High voltage copper wire

They are generally made of high voltage copper cables, which is the preferred conductor for the purpose of electricity transportation, because it can conduct electricity over long distances. HV copper cable also has the added benefit of being somewhat flexible, which makes it easy to work with when installing your own inverter system.
High voltage cable is one of the most important components in any 3-phase wire harness, with a wide cross section range from 2.5mm2 to 120mm2. If you have a high current load then you'll need some cables with large cross sections like 70mm2, 95mm2, that can handle large amounts of current without overheating or burning out.
 

2) High voltage pass-through connector

The most common type of inverter wiring harness available is one that comes with a three-way pass through connector on the inverter end or with three one-way pass-through connectors on the integrated motor controller. The connector mounts directly to the inverter surface using screws. This allows you to use one connector for all three phases (U, V, W) of the inverter wire harness, which makes for cleaner installation and easier wiring.

3) Crimp Terminal

A terminal , a component in which the wire ends, is a metal connection point for connecting all of these different components together in a single unit. It provides a reliable connection point for all of EV components and ensures that they remain in place at all times so that they can function properly without causing any damage to other components or causing any accidents due to loose connections. These terminals require crimping tools and crimping dies to ensure proper connections are made without damaging either end of the wire being crimped onto them.

Terminals with crimps - Crimp terminals are used when you need to connect wires directly into the terminal without using any connectors or solder. Crimp terminals have a hole in each end that allows you to push the ends of two wires together until they snap together. This type of terminal is most commonly used on inverter wiring harness, battery cables or other applications.
 

4) Heat shrink tube

Heat shrink tube is a great way to add strength and protection to the wiring harness of your electric vehicle. It is used in many applications such as automotive, industrial, aerospace, marine and military. Heat shrink tubing is a type of specially formulated polyolefin plastic that is typically used for insulation and protection of wires and cables.

The benefits of heat shrink tubing are numerous:
◆ It reduces wire movement and wear from vibrations
◆ It acts as an insulator against heat or cold
◆ It can be cut or shaped into any desired length, making it ideal for custom applications.
◆ It adds strength to weak areas of your wiring harness
◆ It provides moisture resistance and protection against corrosion.
 

5) Corrugated pipe

Corrugated tube is a widely used material in electric vehicle wiring harness. It plays an important role in the external protection of wire harnesses. It can effectively prevent the wires from being broken and damaged by external force, providing excellent protection for the wires. Its main features are good wear resistance, flame retardant, acid and alkali resistance, high temperature resistance up to 150 degrees Celsius, and a certain degree of flexibility and good distortion resistance.
