After thinking about it, I would say:
partie interne élaborée avec du métal inerte

or correct the typo that I first gave:
partie interne faite de métal inerte

Yes indeed it's not easy.
Starting from your suggestion "inerte" and considering again the context (electrical)I'm more tempted to something like "partie interne isole electriquement/non-alimente"

Thank you very much for your help.
