    2.0 inverter applications aside from issues of supplying power to higher wattage appliances, inverters must be supplied with a constant source of high current12 volt dc from a bank of batteries. At full 1000 watt load, the dc input require- ments are up to 100 amperes at 12 volts dc. Read the follow...

    The 110 vac output of the inverter is in the form of a modified sine wave (msw) as shown in figure 5. This type of waveform has the same energy characteristics as the sine wave of commercial electrical power. The modi- fied sine wave is superior to the 100% square wave output (not shown) produced by...

    Cautions: this device supplies 110 vac electrical power directly to the appliances through three standard, north american u-ground receptacles. Never try to use the inverters with any 12-vdc-power source that uses a positive ground. Most modern vehicles, boats and aircraft use negative ground system...
