METHOD FOR IDENTIFYING OPERATING MODE OF CHARGING/SUPPLYING SYSTEM BETWEEN VEHICLE AND EXTERIOR, AND SYSTEM FOR IDENTIFYING OPERATING MODE OF THE SYSTEM BY THE IDENTIFYING METHOD

摘要

An operating mode of a charging/supplying system in which a vehicle is connected with a first external device or a second external device via a connecting portion used in common in a charging mode in which an electric storage device installed on the vehicle is charged with electric power from the first external device and a supplying mode in which electric power is supplied from the vehicle to the second external device, and which is operable in a selected one of the charging mode and the supplying mode, is identified. More specifically, a plurality of detection values are detected from at least one electric connection channel provided between the vehicle and the first external device or the second external device via the connecting portion, and it is determined whether the operating mode of the charging/supplying system is the charging mode or the supplying mode, based on a combination of the plurality of detection values.
