Electric vehicle testing

The importance of Electric Vehicle (EV) is clearly evident as part of the drive towards better use of clean and renewable energy and the reduction of harmful emissions and particulates. EV is now discussed so widely, and the investment in increasing EV deployment is so great, that every workshop has to be aware of the increased need to handle EVs.

The PicoScope 4425A Electric Vehicle (EV) kit is designed to cover all vehicle types and powertrains and to provide workshops with a future-proof system that covers vehicles with high-voltage batteries and motor systems. Providing comprehensive diagnostics capability for all types of EV (BEV, MHEV, PHEV, Fuel-cell), and ICE (Diesel, Gasoline, LPG). 

In combination with the extensive range of Pico accessories, the 4425A covers engines/motors, sensors, actuators, communications buses, noise vibration & harshness (NVH), and basic measurements in a user-friendly system that includes extensive guidance for the technicians. The PicoScope 4425A EV Diagnostics Kit contains all the test equipment required to ensure safety during work on an EV, and to investigate any faults that are likely to cause safety issues.

As the industry transitions to high-voltage electrified powertrains, guessing is no longer just inefficient—it’s dangerous. Built around the market-leading 4-channel PicoScope 4425A with smart PicoBNC+® technology, this kit provides the specialized isolation tools, heavy-duty current clamps, and safety testers required to diagnose battery management systems (BMS), inverters, motor drives, and charging circuits. 

PicoScope 7 EV Guided Tests

Please note: You should only work on high-voltage systems in accordance with the manufacturer's guidelines and procedures; and you should be properly trained and equipped with relevant personal protective equipment.

To support the PicoScope 4425A EV (Electric Vehicle) Diagnostics Kit, we have a series of EV Guided tests in PicoScope Automotive software:

DC HV energy system or the AC motor/generator drive system
Charging behaviour and 12V/HV battery current split issues
Covers CP/PP communications between charging system and vehicle
3-phase current measurements to check winding balance under load
All 12 V and 48 V systems

Flexibility

As a workshop focused on growing and retaining a profitable customer base, the need for quick and accurate diagnostics is vital as older vehicles are kept on the road for longer, and new technologies grow their share of new car sales. PicoScope supports your "fix it right" culture, with fewer parts changed on guesswork, and with increased customer satisfaction, repeat business and profits. While purpose-built for high-voltage EVs, the EV kit contains a fully functional automotive PicoScope. It can seamlessly diagnose traditional gas and diesel engines*, meaning your investment handles your varied workload today and tomorrow. 

PicoScope can diagnose:
• Gasoline and Diesel Vehicles
• Battery Electric Vehicles
• Full and Plug-in Hybrid Vehicles
• 48 V Mild Hybrid Vehicles
• Fuel Cell Vehicles
Smart PicoBNC+® Integration
Plug-and-play simplicity. The scope automatically recognizes when you connect a PicoBNC+ accessory, instantly configuring the software, scaling, and providing power. No batteries required in the probes; the scope powers them directly.
Workshop-Ready Storage
Available in specialized foam trays designed to drop straight into your existing workshop tool trolley, or a rugged carry case with custom foam cutouts for mobile diagnostics.
