What is a power inverter for?
Power inverters are also called onboard power supplies, and all the vehicles we use will have power inverters installed. An onboard power supply is a device that is installed on the vehicle to charge other electrical appliances. Used in in-vehicle systems to convert the power of the car into a voltage that can be used by all electrical appliances, charging mobile phones and MP3 and other devices; used for car voltage monitoring. The power inverter can detect the voltage of the car and achieve the function of a high-voltage alarm.

Principle of Power Inverter
The inverter is a DC-AC transformer, in fact, like a converter, it is a process of voltage inversion. The converter converts the AC voltage in the grid into 12 V regulated DC, and the inverter converts the 12 V DC of the Adapter into high-frequency AC, both of which use the more commonly used PWM technology.

Purpose of Inverter
The function of the inverter is to convert the DC power into the required AC power. The switching device can be turned on and off within a certain time, and it can function as an output and a protection circuit. The conversion efficiency of the inverter is high, and the startup speed is also very fast. The appearance is made of all-aluminum material, which increases the heat dissipation performance and wears resistance coefficient, and can withstand the extrusion of a certain pressure.

Inverter usage scenarios
(1) User solar power supply
1. Small-scale power supply ranging from 10-100W, used in remote areas without electricity, such as plateaus, islands, pastoral areas, border posts, and other military and civilian life electricity, such as lighting, TV, tape recorders, etc.
2.3-5KW household rooftop solar grid-connected power generation system.
3. Photovoltaic water pump: solve the drinking and irrigation of deep wells in areas without electricity.

(2) Photovoltaic power station
10KW-50MW independent photovoltaic power station, wind-solar (diesel) complementary power station, various large parking lot charging stations, etc.

(3) Home lighting power supply
Such as garden lamps, street lamps, portable lamps, camping lamps, mountaineering lamps, fishing lamps, black light lamps, tapping lamps, energy-saving lamps, etc.

(4) Communication/communication field
Solar unattended microwave relay station, optical cable maintenance station, broadcasting/communication/paging power supply system; rural carrier telephone photovoltaic system, small communication machine, etc.

(5) Transportation
Such as beacon lights, traffic/railway signal lights, traffic warning/signal lights, Yuxiang street lights, high-altitude obstruction lights, highway/railway wireless phone booths, unattended road shift power supply, etc.

(6) Solar building
Combining solar power generation with building materials will make future large-scale buildings self-sufficient in electricity, which is a major development direction in the future.

Is the inverter power DC or AC?
Of course, what the inverter produces is alternating current. The definition of the inverter is the process of converting DC into AC. AC into DC is called rectified DC into AC, called an inverter. Inverter refers to the conversion of DC power such as batteries and photovoltaic cells into AC power, generally referring to 220V AC power such as UPS. It is a typical inverter, which is used for emergency power supply of important equipment during power failure.

Does the power inverter have any effect on the car?
The correct use of the onboard inverter is not harmful to the car. The vehicle has two power supply methods, one is the battery and the other is the generator. If only the battery is used to supply power to the onboard inverter, it will cause the battery to quickly reach a depleted state. If the engine is started to drive the generator to generate electricity, then the use of the inverter will not cause any adverse damage.
