Power inverter, or inverter, is an electronic device or circuitry that changes direct current( DC) to alternating current ( AC) .[1]
The input voltage, output voltage and frequency, and overall power handling depend on the design of the specific device or circuitry. The inverter does not produce any power; the power is provided by the DC source.
A power inverter can be entirely electronic or may be a combination of mechanical effects( such as a rotary apparatus) and electronic circuitry. Static inverters do not use moving parts in the conversion process.
