Abstract
A charge validation system receives data defining a first temporal pattern of electrical parameter values describing electric power received during a charge event with a vehicle, receives data defining a second temporal pattern of electrical parameter values describing electric power supplied during a charge event with electric vehicle supply equipment, and responsive to mismatch of the first and second temporal patterns, sends a command to the electric vehicle supply equipment to prompt the electric vehicle supply equipment to discontinue or preclude charging.
Claims18
A charge validation system comprising:
- one or more computer processors remote from a vehicle and electric vehicle supply equipment, and programmed to
- receive data defining a first temporal pattern of electrical parameter values describing electric power received during a charge event with the vehicle,
- receive data defining a second temporal pattern of electrical parameter values describing electric power supplied during a charge event with the electric vehicle supply equipment, and
- responsive to mismatch of the first and second temporal patterns, send a command to the electric vehicle supply equipment to prompt the electric vehicle supply equipment to discontinue or preclude charging.
A charge validation method comprising:
- receiving data describing a first temporal pattern of electrical parameter values of electric power received during a charge event with a vehicle;
- receiving data describing a second temporal pattern of electrical parameter values of electric power supplied during a charge event with electric vehicle supply equipment;
- and
- responsive to mismatch of the first and second temporal patterns, sending a command to the electric vehicle supply equipment to prompt the electric vehicle supply equipment to discontinue or preclude charging.
A charge validation method comprising:
- receiving first data describing a time series of amplitude values of electric power received by a vehicle during a charge event;
- receiving second data describing a time series of amplitude values of electric power supplied by electric vehicle supply equipment during a charge event;
- and
- responsive to mismatch of the first and second data, sending a command to the electric vehicle supply equipment to prompt the electric vehicle supply equipment to discontinue charging.
