Abstract
A system for recharging a plug-in hybrid vehicle and a control method are provided to recharge a battery with exterior AC electricity plugged in. The system includes a motor operated as an electric motor or a generator, a battery in which DC voltage is stored, an inverter disposed between the motor and the battery, a plugged in exterior AC electric power source supplying electrical energy, a single phase inductor disposed between the inverter and the AC electric power source, a switch which electrically connects or disconnects the motor, a current sensor that detects current value supplying to the motor, and a controller which controls the switch to disconnect electric connection between the inductor and the motor and controls the inverter not to supply current to the phase which is not connected to the inductor when the AC electric power source is plugged in.
