Hybrid vehicle with electrical power outlet

1. A hybrid vehicle comprising:

a power bus electrically connected to an inverter;

a traction battery electrically connected to the inverter;

an electric machine electrically connected to the inverter and configured to receive power from the traction battery;

an electrical outlet electrically connected to the power bus and including a socket; and

a controller programmed to:

receive a user-specified current limit for the socket,

responsive to current of the socket exceeding the user-specified limit, output an excessive-current warning, and

responsive to current of the socket exceeding a maximum, de-energize the socket.

2. The hybrid vehicle of claim 1 , wherein the controller is further programmed to output a signal indicative of a measured current of the socket to a display.

3. The hybrid vehicle of claim 2 , wherein the display is located in the vehicle or on a remote device.

4. The hybrid vehicle of claim 1 further comprising an ON/OFF switch configured to energize and de-energize the socket, wherein de-energizing the socket further includes commanding the ON/OFF switch to OFF.

5. The hybrid vehicle of claim 1 , wherein the socket is a plurality of sockets each having an ON/OFF switch so that the sockets are independently energizeable.

6. The hybrid vehicle of claim 5 , wherein the controller is further programmed to, responsive to a combined power draw of the sockets exceeding an upper power limit, de-energize at least one of the sockets by commanding at least one of the ON/OFF switches to OFF.

7. The hybrid vehicle of claim 5 , wherein the controller is further programmed to:

receive another user-specified current limit for a second one of the sockets, and

responsive to current of the second socket exceeding the another user-specified limit, output an excessive-current warning associated with the second socket.

8. The hybrid vehicle of claim 7 , wherein the controller is further programmed to:

responsive to a summation of user-specified currents of the sockets exceeding a system limit, issue an error message to a display.

9. The hybrid vehicle of claim 1 , wherein the controller is further programmed to:

set a timer for the socket, and

responsive to the timer expiring, de-energize the socket.

10. The hybrid vehicle of claim 1 , wherein the socket is a plurality of sockets, and the controller is further programmed to:

prioritize one of the sockets as least important; and

responsive to a total power draw of the plurality of sockets exceeding an upper power limit, de-energize the least important socket.

11. A hybrid vehicle comprising:

an auxiliary power system including a plurality of sockets each having an associated ON/OFF switch and configured to provide access to power; and

a controller programmed to, responsive to a total power draw of the sockets exceeding an upper power limit, de-energize a lowest priority one of the sockets by commanding an associated one of the ON/OFF switches to the OFF position, and, responsive to the lowest-priority socket being de-energized and the total power draw of the sockets continuing to exceed the upper power limit, de-energizing a second-lowest priority one of the sockets.

12. The hybrid vehicle of claim 11 , wherein the controller is further programmed to issue a notification of the de-energization of the lowest priority socket responsive to the lowest priority socket being de-energized.

13. The hybrid vehicle of claim 11 , wherein the controller is further programmed to, responsive to a total power draw of the sockets being less than the upper power limit and exceeding a threshold power, issue a warning.

14. A hybrid vehicle comprising:

a power bus electrically connected to an inverter;

a traction battery electrically connected to the inverter;

an electric machine electrically connected to the inverter and configured to receive power from the traction battery;

an auxiliary power system electrically connected to the power bus, the auxiliary power system including a plurality of sockets each having an associated ON/OFF switch and configured to provide access to power; and

a controller programmed to:

set a priority designation for each of the sockets such that one of the sockets is a lowest-priority socket and a second of the sockets is a second-lowest-priority socket;

responsive to a total power draw of the sockets exceeding the upper power limit, de-energize the lowest-priority socket by commanding an associated one of the ON/OFF switches to the OFF position; and

responsive to the lowest-priority socket being de-energized and the total power draw of the sockets exceeding the upper power limit, de-energize the second-lowest-priority socket.

15. The hybrid vehicle of claim 11 further comprising a truck box including a sidewall, wherein the auxiliary power system further includes an outlet disposed on the sidewall and at least one of the sockets is disposed in the outlet.

16. The hybrid vehicle of claim 11 , wherein the lowest-priority socket and the second-lowest-priority socket are user defined.

17. The hybrid vehicle of claim 14 , wherein the controller is further programmed to, responsive to a total power draw of the sockets being less than the upper power limit and exceeding a threshold power, issue a warning.

18. The hybrid vehicle of claim 14 further comprising a truck box including a sidewall, wherein the auxiliary power system further includes an outlet disposed on the sidewall and at least one of the sockets is disposed in the outlet.
