SYSTEM AND METHOD FOR MOTOR BASED POWER TRANSFER

A power transfer system includes a traction battery pack, a power inverter module configured electrical communication with the traction battery pack, and a rotary electric machine. The rotary electric machine is in electrical communication with the alternating current bus and includes a first set of windings in electrical communication with the alternating current bus and a second set of winding in electrical communication with an output alternating current bus. A power outlet in electrical communication with the second set of windings through the output alternating current bus. A controller in electrical communication with the power inverter module. The controller is configured to selectively direct the power inverter module to direct the alternating current through the alternating current bus to the rotary electric machine to generate a desired output power at the power outlet.
