The use of Power inverters nowadays has
become very common in order to overcome the power cut. Grid tie power
inverter is one of the best options to get uninterrupted power supply. This
is a special type of DC to AC power inverter which is used primarily in
renewable energy applications. The
term ‘grid-tied’ means that the house is still connected to the local utility
power grid. Grid-tied inverters change the direct current (DC) from the power
source and turn it into the same kind of alternating current (AC) that is
supplied by the electric company. This is the reason why this is popularly known
as DC to AC power inverter.
Basing on the
different types of technology there are different types of grid tie power
inverters are available in the market. Before purchasing grid tie inverters, following
points should be kept in mind.
1. Rated
output power provided in watts or kilowatts
2.
Peak efficiency which indicates the highest
level of efficiency that the device can achieve.
3.
Maximum input current i.e the maximum
amount of direct current that the device can use.
4.
Start voltage that indicates the
minimum DC voltage required for the device to turn on and begin working.
5.
The protection that the device has
against water.
