BIDIRECTIONAL ENERGY TRANSFER SYSTEM AND METHOD UTILIZING A CORDSET

A bidirectional energy transfer system includes a cordset of a bidirectional energy transfer system that transfers power from a device to at least one battery array within a traction battery of an electrified vehicle when the cordset is operating under a first condition, and that transfers power from the at least one battery array to the device when the cordset is operating under a second condition. The cordset can include relays powered by the at least one battery array when the cordset is operating under the second condition.
