Abstract
A vehicle includes an electrified propulsion system powered by a traction battery over an electrical distribution system (EDS) and a controller programmed to monitor at least one of a current flow and a temperature at a plurality of locations throughout the EDS. The controller is also programmed to implement at least one mitigation action over a predetermined time window in response to detecting a filtered current value exceeding a threshold.
