A system for charging a battery unit to power a work machine. The system includes a charger to charge the battery unit, charging receptacles, power supply connectors, and a charging controller. The power supply connectors are configured to be received into the charging receptacles to attain connections between the charger and the battery unit. The charging controller is communicably coupled to the charger and is configured to receive an input corresponding to a net charge capacity of the battery unit; determine a power to be supplied to the battery unit by the charger to charge the battery unit in response to the input; and supply the power to the battery unit from the charger through the connections. The power to be supplied to the battery unit corresponds to a maximum possible power that meets the net charge capacity of the battery unit in the shortest possible time.

A computer implemented method for managing charge availability of a charge unit (CU) to obtain charge for a battery of an electric vehicle (EV) is provided. The CU includes a computer for processing at least part of the method and for communicating with a server over a network. The method includes receiving, by the server, status information from the computer of the CU. The method includes sending to the computer of the CU instructions to make a reservation for the CU. The reservation is for a user account that has requested a desire to charge the battery of the electric vehicle of the user at the CU or another CU. The method includes sending, by the server, a confirmation for the reservation to the user account. The confirmation is viewable via a device having access to the server via the user account. The method includes sending, by the server, a data regarding a time of availability of the CU to the user account for the reservation. The computer of the CU is configured to display a visual indicator regarding the reservation of the CU.

An on-board battery charger (OBC) includes a converter (e.g., a DC/DC converter) and a controller. An output port of the converter is connectable to a battery (e.g., a traction battery of an electric vehicle (EV)) via a voltage network (e.g., a high-voltage (HV) network of the EV). The converter converts an input power into an output power and outputs the output power onto the voltage network for charging the battery. The controller, upon detecting a transitory disconnection in the voltage network, controls the converter to stop converting the input power into the output power. In stopping the converter, the controller stops the converter prior to a corresponding reconnection in the voltage network. The controller may detect the transitory disconnection upon detecting a switching frequency of a power switch of the converter decreasing below a pre-defined threshold as the switching frequency decreases due to effects of the transitory disconnection.
