FAQS 4

Is an inverter a generator or a converter?

An inverter is a static device that converts one form of electrical power into another but cannot generate electrical power. This makes it a converter, not a generator. It can be used as a standalone device such as solar power or back power for home appliances.

What is an inverter & how does it work?

An inverter is an electronic device that converts direct current (DC) electricity into alternating current (AC) electricity. Think of it as a translator between two different electrical languages – your solar panels, batteries, and car electrical systems speak “DC,” while your home appliances, power grid, and most electronics speak “AC.”

What do kW and kVA mean in inverter specifications?

kW refers to the real or usable power output of an inverter. kVA represents the total power capacity it can carry, including power lost in phase difference (reactive power). For example, an inverter rated at 10 kVA with a power factor of 0.8 can only deliver 8 kW of real power.

What is wattage in inverter?

Wattage is the output power of an inverter expressed in units of Watts (W). Wattage can be divided into two categories: continuous wattage and peak or surge wattage. Continuous wattage is power that can be used stably for a long time, while peak or surge wattages are additional power that can be used in a short time.
