We are told to never run the traction voltage into the passenger compartment. Here is catch22: We have a battery current sampling shunt. The two smal terminal make up to 50 mv that goes to the current meter on the dash. But these two wires are at traction voltage. Please note that traction voltage is ALWAYS isolated from the chassis. There is NO low, safe side!! So the two wires should be double insulated, and protected from any chance to touch a human.
