A wire harness for a charging inlet of a vehicle includes first and second high voltage wires having first and second conductors. An inline disconnect electrically connects the first and second conductors and is configured to allow the conductors to be disconnected. The inline disconnect includes a housing having a central cavity, a first chamber at a first end that receives the first high voltage wire, and a second chamber open to the central cavity at a second end that receives the second high voltage wire. First and second disconnect contacts terminated to the conductors are received in the central cavity. A connecting element couples the first and second disconnect contacts and is removable from the disconnect contacts to allow disconnection of the first and second disconnect contacts to electrically separate the first and second high voltage wires.
