Question: Inverter

Answer: The fundamental purpose of a Photovoltaic system Inverter is to change direct current electricity from the PV modules and batteries to Alternating Current electricity.

Question: Transformer

Answer: Increases or decreases Voltage by passing through a primary transformer coil, inducing flow in the secondary transformer coil.

Question: Square Wave Inverter

Answer: These units switch the direct current input into a step-function or “square” Alternating Current output. They provide little output voltage control, limited surge capability, and considerable harmonic distortion.

Question: Modified Square Wave Inverters

Answer: This type of Inverter uses field effect transistors or silicon-controlled rectifiers to switch direct current input into Alternating Current output.

Question: Sine Wave Inverters

Answer: Are used to operate sensitive electronic hardware that requires a high quality waveform. They are designed specifically to produce output with little harmonic distortion, enabling them to operate even the most sensitive electronic equipment.
