Abstract

An apparatus and a method for detecting a dielectric breakdown in an eco-friendly vehicle are provided. The apparatus includes a measurer that is configured to measure resistance values of insulation resistors disposed across a high voltage battery and a controller that is configured to measure a voltage applied to the insulation resistor using the measurer and analyze a pattern of the measured voltage to detect a dielectric breakdown portion.
