An electrified vehicle includes a chassis, an energy storage system supported by the chassis, a high voltage component, a conduit, a high voltage cable, and a controller. The high voltage cable is routed through the conduit and provides high voltage power between the energy storage system and the high voltage component. The controller is configured to (a) initiate an alarm if a person is attempting to access the high voltage cable with the high voltage power active, (b) disengage a contactor of the energy storage system to stop providing the high voltage power through the high voltage cable in response to (i) the person attempting to access the high voltage cable with the high voltage power active and/or (ii) the person accessing the conduit, and/or (c) prevent access to the high voltage cable in response to the contactor being engaged and the high voltage power being active.
