Abstract
A system for protecting the output terminal of the on-board-charger (OBC) includes: the OBC configured to apply an output voltage equal to a voltage of a battery to the battery to perform charging of the battery, an output terminal protection apparatus configured to compare a voltage difference between the output voltage of the OBC and the voltage of the battery with a threshold, and an OBC relay configured to connect the OBC to the battery when the voltage difference is less than the threshold. The OBC performs the charging of the battery after the OBC is connected to the battery.
