Abstract:
A hybrid vehicle includes a power bus electrically connected to an inverter and an electrical socket electrically connected to the power bus. A ground fault circuit interrupter (GFCI) is electrically connected between the power bus and the socket. The GFCI has a circuit breaker with a mechanical reset. An actuator arrangement is configured to actuate the mechanical reset to reset the circuit breaker.
