Inverters

What is an inverter? Inverters change Direct Current (DC) to Alternating Current (AC). Stand-Alone inverters can be used to convert DC from a battery to AC to run electronic equipment, motors, appliances, etc. It is better to minimize what you run on an inverter

Installation Procedure Remove inverter from packaging Ground inverter Attach batteries Wire into electrical system Installation Information Provided By Colin Kern, Energy Systems Engineering

Inverters change Direct Current (DC) to Alternating Current (AC). Stand-Alone inverters can be used to convert DC from a battery to AC to run electronic equipment, motors, appliances, etc. To determine the maximum power you require, and the size inverter you need, make a list of all the equipment you will run, and the amount of time it will be in use. It is better to minimize what you run on an inverter.
