Abstract: Systems and methods are described for monitoring a high voltage electrical system in a vehicle. An interface circuit is configured to provide isolation between a high voltage component of the vehicle and a control module. The interface circuit comprises a high voltage constant current source, a voltage threshold detector and an electrical isolation circuit. The high voltage constant current source is configured to receive an input at a first voltage from the high voltage component. The voltage threshold detector is configured to receive an output from the high voltage constant current source and to output a signal to indicate whether the voltage of the high voltage component is at, or below, a desired voltage.
