ELECTRICAL SYSTEM INCLUDING A CAPACITIVE PRE-CHARGE SYSTEM

An electrical system may include an energy store, a load, and a pre-charge system connecting the energy store and the load. The load may include a DC link. The pre-charge system may include a capacitive coupler. The pre-charge system may pre-charge the DC link of the load via a pre-charging cycle that alternates between (i) a charging phase during which the capacitive coupler and the DC link are charged by the energy store and (ii) a discharging phase during which a charge of the capacitive coupler is discharged and a charge of the DC link is maintained in the DC link.
