Abstract

A system comprises: an inverter configured to convert DC power from a battery to AC power to drive a motor, wherein the inverter includes: a point-of-use controller configured to: detect a fault; determine a fault type of the detected fault from among n fault types; determine a fault response group to which the determined fault type belongs from among m fault response groups; encode the determined fault response group; and transmit the encoded fault response group via a communication interface; and a phase controller configured to: receive the encoded fault response group from the point-of-use controller via the communication interface; determine the fault response group; decode the determined fault response group; and output the decoded fault response group.
