Abstract

An on-board battery charger (OBC) of an electric vehicle (EV) receives AC electrical power from a charge station and outputs a DC output current for charging a traction battery of the EV. In response to transients in the AC electrical power while the OBC is receiving the AC electrical power from the charge station and outputting the DC output current, a controller controls the OBC to (i) stop processing the AC electrical power from the charge station and reduce the DC output current and (ii) after the transients have passed, resume processing the AC electrical power from the charge station and increase the DC output current. At a zero-crossing event of the AC electrical power after the transients have passed, the OBC is controlled to resume processing the AC electrical power from the charge station and increase the DC output current.
