An inverter is a power electronic device that charges direct current to alternating current. With the growth in technology, many advancements and utilities have been added in inverters overtime.

Let us discuss two of them:

  1. Inverter charger with auto-transfer switching – These are very useful in case of voltage fluctuations. These transfer switches sense when they are plugged in n alternate current source. Accordingly, they power the device and also charge the batteries. However, when a loss/reduction of power flow is detected by the switch, it will power off the device and stop the charging. The benefits of these built in switches are that they provide an uninterruptable power supply and gives an easy solution to regular power losses.
  2. Solar power inverter charger for home – These inverters work on the same mechanism as an inverter with the exception that they contain an assembly of solar panels, charge controller, batteries and inverter which are charged using the power from solar panels. They are available in different varieties with additional features and are considered best for homes.

There are a wide variety of inverters available today. The most common of them are 12V to 220V inverters. Their main characteristics are as under mentioned:

  1. They are specially designed to operate under harsh environment.
  2. Designed to operate sensitive electronic and electrical equipments.
  3. Easy to install and operate.
  4. Can be used quite effectively on home and office appliances.
  5. In-built chargers which are fast, helping in minimize charging time.
  6. Guarantees power continuity.
  7. Provides protection for load when used in combination with generator.
  8. Adaptable to humid environment.
  9. Battery sensors sense temperature to increase battery lifecycle.
  10. Contains power save mode to reduce idle consumption.
  11. Are line-interactive so as to meet the power needs of demanding loads, like motor loads.
  12. They come with an optional remote control panel.
  13. Are equipped with automatic generator starting functionality.

Hence, to provide a solution for power losses, one can choose from a variety of well-equipped, efficient and cost effective inverters which are easily available in the market or can be ordered through any reliable online platform, as per the usage of the customer.
