The invention provides a system to perform tests quickly and accurately to wiring harness. The system comprises a workstation (15) equipped with an electrical test machine (12) with test terminals (19) disposed on the end of extendable hoses (17), a connection interface between harness connectors (13) and terminals tests (19), a working board (10) to perform on it the tests to a wiring harness (11), one or more projection devices (21, 21 21") arranged to project images onto the working board (10) and a computer system (31) to supply such projection devices (21, 21', 21") with images (40) to assist the operators performing the tests. Said connection interface is formed by adapter modules (41) connectable by one side to the wiring harness connectors (13) and by the other to the test terminals (19). Test terminals (19) and adapter modules (41) comprise electronic circuits and external identification labels holding identification information.
